Aluminum nitride films were deposited by varying the voltages of argon ion beams from 400 to 1200 V in dual ion beam sputtering. The crystal structure, microstructure, and elemental distributions of the aluminum nitride films were analyzed by x-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and secondary ion mass spectroscopy, respectively. The aluminum nitride films exhibited the 〈002〉 preferred orientation at an optimal ion beam voltage of 800 V. The orientation changed to a mixture of {100} and {002} planes above 800 V, accounting for radiation damage. The thickness of the film increases with increasing ion beam voltage, reaching a steady state value of 210 nm at an ion beam voltage of 1200 V. Under optimal condition (800 V), the c-axis orientation of the aluminum nitride 〈002〉 film was obtained with a dense and high-quality crystal structure.

AbstractBased on a small set of selected publications on the using of nanocrystalline silicon films (nc-Si) for solar cell from 1997 to 2001, this paper reviews the application of nc-Si films as intrinsic layers in p-i-n solar cells. The new structure of nc-Si films deposited at high chamber pressure and high hydrogen dilution have characters of nanocrystalline grains with dimension about several tens of nanometer embedded in matrix of amorphous tissue and a high volume fraction of crystallinity (60~80%). The new nc-Si material have optical gap of 1.89 eV. The efficiency of this single junction solar cell reaches 8.7%. This nc-Si layer can be used not only as an intrinsic layer and as a p-type layer. Also nanocrystalline layer may be used as a seed layer for the growth of polycrystalline Si films at a low temperature.We used single ion beam sputtering methods to synthesize nanocrystalline silicon films successfully. The films were characterized with the technique of X-ray diffraction, Atomic Force Micrographs. We found that the films had a character of nc-amorphous double phase structure. Conductivity test at different temperatures presented the transportation of electrons dominated by different mechanism within different temperature ranges. Photoconductivity gains of the material were obtained in our recent investigation.
