T. Serin, THE INVESTIGATION OF THE ANNEALING EFFECT ON HYDROGENATED AMORPHOUS-SILICON PIN DIODES BY CAPACITANCE TECHNIQUES, Semiconductor science and technology (Print), 13(11), 1998, pp. 1272-1276
In this study the reverse-bias annealing effect on the density of stat
es(DOS) in hydrogenated amorphous silicon pin diodes was investigated.
In order to find the effect of reverse-bias thermal annealing on the
DOS around the midgap of the i-region in a pin structure of (p(+)-type
)/a-Si:H(intrinsic)/a-Si-H(n(+)-type)/Al the junction capacitance was
measured for annealing temperatures of 23-175 degrees C and the DOS ar
ound the midgap of the i-region was determined by three different capa
citance techniques. The results are tabulated.
