Excimer laser crystallization of a-SiCx on glass

Abstract: Silicon carbide (SiC) is a promising material for the fabrication of optoelectronic devices. In the amorphous state physical-vapor-deposited SiC is already an essential part of the production of electron beam liquid phase crystallized silicon absorbers, because of its good wettability for the silicon melt. The resulting polycrystalline thin film absorbers exhibit excellent electrical properties (B. Eggleston et al. MRS Online Proc. Libr. 1426, 251 (2012) and demonstrate the potential of this technology (J. Dor… Show more

“…In general, various types of lasers, capable of generating pulsed or continuous wave radiation at different wavelengths, can be used for SiC laser annealing. However, nanosecondpulsed UV lasers such as excimer and frequency tripled and quadrupled Nd:YAG lasers (base emission at 1064 nm) are the most commonly used due to their prevalence and the high optical absorption of crystalline SiC at UV wavelengths [91,92,[101][102][103].…”
