Doping of amorphous silicon by ion implantation: Electrical, optical and photoelectrical properties

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics B Aims and scope

Abstract

Results of electrical, optical and photoelectrical properties of a-Si and a-Si(H) doped by means of ion implantation of Ga and N respectively show that the hydrogenated Si can be doped with higher efficiency. Ga seems to be built in the amorphous network as an acceptor and N in the form of (Si-N)x complexes.
