We investigated the crystallinities of poly silicon (poly Si) annealed via green laser annealing (GLA) with a 532-nm pulsed laser and blue laser annealing (BLA) with 450-nm continuous-wave lasers. Three-dimensional heat transfer simulations were performed to obtain the temperature distributions in an amorphous silicon (a-Si) thin film, and GLA and BLA experiments were conducted based on the thermal simulation results. The crystallinity of annealed poly Si samples was analyzed using Raman spectroscopy and spectroscopic ellipsometry. To evaluate the degree of crystallization for the annealed samples quantitatively, the measured spectra of laser-annealed poly Si were fitted to those of crystalline Si and a-Si, and the crystal volume fraction (fc) of the annealed poly Si sample was determined. Both the Raman spectroscopy and ellipsometry showed consistent results on fc. The fc values were found to reach >85% for optimum laser power of GLA and BLA, showing good crystallinity of the laser-annealed poly Si thin films comparable to thermal furnace annealing.

In this study, we compared the crystallinities of polycrystalline silicon thin films annealed using green laser annealing (GLA) with a 532-nm pulsed laser, near-ultraviolet laser annealing (NULA) with a 355-nm pulsed laser, and blue laser diode annealing (BLDA) with 450-nm continuous-wave (CW) lasers. Three-dimensional heat transfer simulations were performed to obtain the temperature distributions in a 100 nm-thick amorphous silicon layer, and optimum laser conditions were determined for each laser annealing. GLA, NULA, and BLDA experiments were conducted based on the thermal simulation results, and the crystallinity of the annealed samples was quantitatively analyzed via spectroscopic ellipsometry. The analysis results indicated that GLA and BLDA resulted in good crystallinity that was comparable to the result of furnace annealing, whereas NULA resulted in a relatively poor crystal quality. The difference in the crystallinities produced by the annealing lasers could be explained using the thermal simulation results. This study provides an insight into the optimum laser annealing conditions for realizing high-quality poly-silicon thin films.

Many considerable investigations focused on the stimulation of therapeutic manners of infected injuries in mice. The exaggerated pathogens that induced wounds were gram-positive like staphylococcal and gram-negative, for example, Pseudomonas aeuroginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii. Acinetobacter can generate a scale range of an infection that may be received in a hospital or any wellness concern facility. In order to know the significance of laser 532 nm with a constant irradiance at various exposure times on the healing process of wounds infected by Acinetobacter baumannii, this study was performed on the BALB/C mice. An elliptical full-thickness skin injury was made on the backside of 45 adult female (BALB/C) mice. Injuries were affected via Acinetobacter baumannii and were randomly assigned into 3 groups. Semiconductor diode continuous wave laser, λ = 532 nm, with output power 40 mW was used. The power density was 5.71 mW/cm2, while the fluencies were 1.7 J/cm2 and 5.14 J/cm2. Fifteen mice were classified according to the times of irradiation. The first group was infected and presented as control, without irradiation. The second group was infected and irradiated for 5 minutes. The third group, likewise, was infected but irradiated for 15 minutes. All groups were subdivided according to the following period, 3, 5, and 10 days, after irradiation and the animals were killed after the treatment. Wound healing was made by measuring the rate of wound closure and histopathological evaluation. The study determined that 532 nm laser therapy had an obvious and positive influence on the healing of infected wounds with fluence (5.14 J/cm2).
