ABSTRACTThe determination of the ambipolar diffusion length, L*, and the effective lifetime, τ*, in p/i and a-Si:H Schottky barriers (ITO/p/a-Si:H/Al-Si; Cr/a-Si:H/Cr/Ag) have been determined by Flying Spot Technique, FST. This technique consists in the transient analysis of the photocurrent/photopotential induced by a laser beam that moves perpendicularly to the structure with a constant motion ratio, at different velocities. Taking into account the competition between the diffusion/drift velocities of the excess carriers and the velocity of the flying spot, it is possible to solve the transport equations and to compute separately L* and τ*, from the asymmetrical distribution responses.

ABSTRACTLarge simultaneous changes in ambipolar diffusion length and d.c. photoconductivity are observed with boron doping below 5ppm. We show that the observation can be explained successfully with a model for the doping effect, which is also consistent with earlier studies. The μτ products for both carriers as a function of doping are determined. The light intensity dependence of diffusion length and photoconductivity is also discussed.
