Conference Object Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Diffusion Length Measurements of Microcrystalline Silicon Thin Films Prepared by Hot-wire/Catalytic Chemical Vapor Deposition (hwcvd)(Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Okur, Salih; Güneş, Mehmet; Finger, Friedhelm; Carius, ReinhardHydrogenated microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) films prepared by using the hot-wire/catalytic chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD) technique at low substrate temperatures between 185 °C and 220 °C with different silane concentrations (SC) were investigated using steady-state photocarrier grating (SSPG) and the steady-state photoconductivity methods (SSPC). Crystalline volume fractions (IC RS) obtained from Raman spectroscopy change from 0.22 to 0.77. The diffusion length (LD) is measured at generation rates between G = 1019 and 1021 cm- 3 s- 1. LD changes from 27 nm to 270 nm, with maximum values around SC = 5%. The dependence of LD on SC is similar to that observed for similar quality microcrystalline silicon films prepared using the VHF-PECVD technique. The grating quality factor, γ0, drops from about 0.9 to 0.5 after transition to the microcrystalline regime as indication of scattering from surface patterns.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Minority Carrier Properties of Microcrystalline Silicon Thin Films Grown by Hw-Cvd and Vhf-Pecvd Techniques(National Institute of Optoelectronics, 2005) Okur, Salih; Göktaş, Oktay; Güneş, Mehmet; Finger, Friedhelm; Carius, ReinhardOpto-electronic properties of μc-Si:H films prepared by hot-wire/catalytic chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD) and very high frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (VHF-PECVD) techniques with various silane concentrations (SC) have been investigated using Raman spectroscopy, the steady-state photocarrier grating technique (SSPG), and the steady-state photoconductivity (SSPC). A correlation between the minority carrier transport properties and the microstructure has been found, using the dependence of the diffusion length (Ld) on the SC and Raman intensity ratio (I c RS) representing crystalline volume fractions. I C RS changes from 0.22 to 0.77. Ld increases with increasing Ic RS. It peaks around 0.5 with a maximum value of 270 nm, then decreases. Similar dependences of Ld on I C RS were obtained for films prepared by both HWCVD and VHF-PECVD. However, the grating quality factor measured on highly crystalline HWCVD films is substantially smaller than that found for VHF-PECVD films, indicating a relatively higher surface roughness present in the highly crystalline HWCVD films.
