Abstract

It is shown that the deposition of a-Si:H films on c-Si wafers yields a reasonably passivated surface of the wafer. The passivation of the c-Si surface is better, if the a-Si:H film has better optoelectronic properties. Cleaning of the wafer surface deposition is required as it is shown for HF cleaning.
