Abstract:We have performed a detailed optical study of phosphorus-doped polycrystalline silicon films (prepared by amorphous deposition with in situ doping and annealing by thermal oxidation up to 1000°C) using Raman spectroscopy and variable-angle spectroscopic ellipsometry from 0.7 to 5 eV. We focus on the determination of strain and grain size using optical techniques and compare with results of a structural analysis using plan-view transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. We analyze the derivat… Show more
