Title: SIMS Study of Elemental Diffusion During Solid Phase Crystallization of Amorphous Silicon

Conference ·
OSTI ID:882819

Crystallization of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) films deposited on low-cost substrates shows potential for solar cell applications. Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) was used to study impurity incorporation, hydrogen evolution, and dopant diffusion during the crystallization process
