Surface passivation of crystalline silicon(c-Si) surface with a-Si:H thin films has been investigated by using quasi-steady-state photo conductance(QSSPC) measurements. Analyzing the influence of a-Si:H film thickness, process gas ratio, deposition temperature and post annealing temperature on the passivation properties of c-Si, we optimized the passivation conditions at the substrate temperature of $200-250^{\circ}C$. Best surface passivation has been obtained by post-deposition annealing of a-Si:H film layer. Post annealing around the deposition temperature was sufficient to improve the surface passivation for silicon substrates. We obtained effective carrier lifetimes above 5.5 ms on average.
