Abstract
We have proposed a possible method to deposit a-Si:H thin films on the large area substrates using multi electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) sources. The thickness uniformity of 2.0% and surface roughness of 0.2 4 nm have been obtained from a-Si:H thin films deposited by this metho d. No particles have been observed from the surface of deposited a-Si: H thin films by atomic force microscopy. The results have shown the po ssibility that the proposed ECR plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposit ion can be used for large area deposition of a-Si:H thin films for TFT -LCD application.
