Abstract:This paper proposes the effects of chamber pressures on the passivation layer of hydrogenated nano-crystalline silicon (nc-Si:H) mixed-phase thin film using microwave annealing (MWA) to achieve a high-quality thin film. The use of 40.68 MHz very-high-frequency plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (VHFPECVD) deposited the nc-Si:H mixed-phase thin film on the top and bottom of the n-type crystalline silicon substrate. The chamber pressures (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8 Torr) of the VHFPECVD were critical factors … Show more
