ABSTRACTA new approach for semiconductor processing is described in which a melt is created at a semiconductor-metal (S-M) interface by shining light of a suitable spectrum from the semiconductor side. The melt can be controlled and confined to a thin region in the vicinity of the interface by controlling the energy delivered to the interface. The interface region regrows epitaxially on silicon as a Si-metal alloy. This phenomenon appears to be an optically induced effect. The interface reaction is greatly diminished if the light is incident from the metal side. This effect is applied to form low resistivity contacts to N+/ P type solar cells in a one-step process.

ABSTRACTUV excimer lasers have been used to dope semiconductors by a one–step process in which the laser serves both to release dopant atoms from a parent molecule and to melt the surface, allowing incorporation of dopant atoms by liquid state diffusion. The technique has been used to dope Si, GaAs, and InP. Shallow junctions formed by the technique have been fabricated into efficient Si and GaAs solar cells.
