AbstractThe composition dependence of room temperature 1.54 μ Er3+ photoluminescence of erbium doped silicon:oxygen thin films deposited by electron cyclotron resonance plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition of SiH4 and O2 with concurrent sputtering of erbium is investigated. The Si:O ratio was varied from 3:1 to 1:2 and the annealing temperature was varied from 500 to 900 °C. The most intense Er3+ luminescence is observed from the sample with Si:O ratio of 1:1.2 after 900 °C anneal and formation of silicon nanoclusters embedded in SiO2 matrix. High active erbium fraction, efficient excitation via carriers, and high luminescence efficiency due to high quality SiO2 matrix are identified as key factors in producing the intense Er3+ luminescence.

AbstractThe phosphorus doped polycrystalline silicon thin films were grown by Electron Cyclotron Resonance Chemical Vapor Deposition (ECR-CVD) at 250°C. The doping gas PH3 was in-situ added with SiH4 gas during the films deposition. All films were deposited with 90% hydrogen dilution ratio. The resistivity of the films is varied from 0.2 to 7Ω-cm and decrease as the PH3/SiH4 gas ratio increase from (3/100 to 7/100). From the SIMS data, the doping concentration is all about 1020cm-3. The activation energy is decreased from 0.35 eV to 0.12 eV as the dopant concentration increased from 0.8×10 20cm-3 to 4.7×10 20cm-3. From the Hall measurements, the carrier mobility is about 2∼4 cm2/V. sec, and the carrier concentration is the 0.5∼1% of the dopant concentration. The gain boundary trap density predicted by the trapping model is about 4×l013cm” 2-2
