Abstract

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) films prepared by electron cyclotron resonance plasma enhanced CVD (ECR PECVD) were investigated electrically and optically. The electrical and optical properties of a-Si:H were strongly dependent on magnet coil current, microwave power, and substrate temperature. A high deposition rate of a-Si:H up to 150 nm/min was realized by this technology. The photoconductive characteristics prepared at 300°C are comparable to those obtained by glow discharge PECVD (GD PECVD).
