Abstract:Seeded recrystallization of thick (up to 25 pm) polycrystalline silicon on SiO, using zone melting technique provides films which contain no grain boundaries and exhibit large areas without subgrain boundaries (mm,). The results, especially the comparison of the two irradiation systems used (laser and strip heater), indicate the dominating role of the thermal gradient a t the crystallization front for the origin and arrangement of defects. The electrical properties measured a t CMOS transistors and diodes are … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
