Abstract:
Microcrystalline silicon is a two-phase material. Its composition can be interpreted as grains of crystalline silicon imbedded in an amorphous silicon tissue, with a high concentration of danglind bonds in the transition regions. In this paper, results obtained by means of numerical simulations about the transport properties of a μc-Si:H p-i-n junction are reported. The role played by the boundary regions between the crystalline grains and the amorphous matrix is taken in account, and these regions are treated similarly to a heterojunction interface. The influence of the local electric field at the grains boundary transition regions on the internal electric configuration of the device is outlined under illumination and applied external bias. © 1999 Elsevier Science S.A.
