研究了在PECVD沉积工艺中,通过在恒定的SiH 4气体辉光中以固定的周期性加入GeH 4,交替引入锗,制备的a-SiGe:H/a-Si:H多层膜的特性。我们发现了增强的光吸收的多层相比,体非晶硅锗(a-SiGe:H)样品具有类似的平均纳入锗含量。我们还发现,在一定的条件下,多层膜显示。光敏性(光电导与暗电导率之比)明显增强,达到8.5 × 10(3)。我们将这些有益的效果归因于多层膜中Ge相关缺陷的减少。(C)2002 Elsevier Science B. V.保留所有权利。
We investigated the characteristics of the amorphous silicon germanium/amorphous silicon (a-SiGe:H/a-Si:H) multilayers processed through alternate germanium incorporation by adding GeH4 at a fixed periodicity to a constant gas glow of SiH4 in a PECVD deposition process. We found an enhanced optical absorption in the multilayers compared to bulk amorphous silicon germanium (a-SiGe:H) samples with similar averaged incorporated Ge contents. We also found that, in a certain condition, the multilayer shows. an obvious enhancement of the photosensitivity (photoconductivity to dark conductivity ratio) to reach a value of 8.5x10(3). We attribute these beneficial effects to the decreased Ge-related defects in the multilayer. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
