Abstract
The microstructure control of amorphous silicon thin films is critical to improve the performance of microelectronic devices. Here the control methods are compared and analyzed,including variations of auxiliary external field,introduction interface,doping and process parameters. The effects of the magnitude,direction and time of the auxiliary external field are mainly discussed on the growth direction and rate of crystalline silicon. In addition,the effects of the composition,thickness and structure of the interfacial layer,doping concentration and substrate type were analyzed in detail on the microstructure of the amorphous silicon thin films. The results are helpful to further understand the crystallization mechanism of the amorphous silicon thin films,which is beneficial to optimize the preparation process of crystalline silicon thin films and improve the performance of relative devices.
