Obtaining simultaneously high crystallinity and sub-bandgap absorption in femtosecond laser hyperdoped black silicon using ion beam etching

Femtosecond laser sulfur hyperdoped silicon (fs-hSi) is capable of absorbing photons in the infrared spectral range while simultaneously exhibiting negligible reflection. However, laser processing creates detrimental amorphous and polycrystalline silicon surface layers impairing electronic propertie...
