“…This is the reason why this type of process is currently widely used in solar cell production. However, despite its potential application for nanostructure doping such as nano-grains in nc-Si [1,2,4], nanowires [5] or nanocrystals [6,7], atomic transport in nanometric phases is still poorly known. In the case of nc-Si, it has been shown that atomic transport kinetics could be enhanced in nanograins and that triple junction diffusion is several orders of magnitude faster than grain boundary (GB) diffusion [8,9].…”
