In-situ characterization of trapped charges in amorphous semiconductor films during plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition

The subband-gap absorption current in a hydrogenated amorphous silicon film has been measured during plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The current is probed by a near-infrared laser while photoexcited carriers are generated under visible laser illumination. The trapped charge density is det...
