摘要
Using diborane as doping gas, p-doped μc-Si:H layers are deposited by using the plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) technology. The effects of deposition pressure and plasma power on the growth and the properties of μc-Si:H layers are investigated. The results show that the deposition rate, the electrical and the structural properties are all strongly dependent on deposition pressure and plasma power. Boron-doped μc-Si:H films with a dark conductivity as high as 1.42 Ω-1cm-1 and a crystallinity of above 50% are obtained. With this p-layer, μc-Si:H solar cells are fabricated. In addition, the mechanism for the effects of deposition pressure and plasma power on the growth and the properties of boron-doped μc-Si:H layers is discussed. © 2008 Chin. Phys.
