OSTI ID:5735631
The application of the ion implantation process to present day materials and fabricate cells and temperature effects were investigated. Thermal annealing was compared to pulsed electron beam annealing. It is found that use of ion implantation allows tailoring of thermal process to a particular sheet material, EFG is improved after high temp, SILSO is degraded after high temp, HEM affected most at 550 to 750 deg C, SEMIX appears independent of process temp, and CZ is degraded by processing at 750 deg C. It is concluded that ion implantation and rapid thermal annealing can be successfully employed for junction formation.
