Abstract:
We present a numerical gas phase reaction model for hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon(μc-Si:H) films from SiH4 and H2 gas mixtures with plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition(PECVD).Under the typical μc-Si:H deposition conditions,the concentrations of the species in the plasma are calculated and the effects of silane fraction(SF=[SiH4]/[H2+SiH4]) are investigated.The results show that SiH3 is the key precursor for μc-Si:H films growth,and other neutral radicals,such as Si2H5,Si2H4 and SiH...
