Abstract

SIMS measurements of implanted Li in (doped and undoped) a-Si:H, a-Si and a-Si:H alloys are discussed. The results suggest basically the same Li diffusion process in p- and n-type a-Si:H with negatively charged acceptors or dangling bonds acting as traps for the positively charged diffusing Li ions. Li is less stable in a-Si than in a-Si:H; Li stability in a-Si:H is enhanced at high concentrations of implanted Li. Both diffusion and stability are modified by doping gradient-related electric fields.
