Abstract

Behavior of solid phase crystallizations (SPC) of RF sputtered and LPCVD amorphous hydrogenated silicon film were investigated. LPCVD films showed the higher degree of crystallinity and larger grain size than sputtered films. The applicable degree of crystallinity was also obtained from sputtered films. The deposition method of amorphous silicon film influenced the behavior of post annealing SPC. Observed degree of crystallinity of sputtered films strongly depended on the partial pressure of hydrogen in deposition. The higher deposition temperature of sputtering provided the better crystallinity after SPC. Due to the high degree of poly-crystallinity, the retardation of larger grain growth was observed on sputtering film.
