    Diffusion 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, Reinhard
    Hydrogenated 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.
