摘要
This paper reports the effect of heat treatment on the electronic activity of grain boundaries of polycrystalline silicon. The results obtained show that for the same concentration of doping, the arsenic doped films are more resistive and have less free carriers than boron doped films. The arsenic atoms have a greater tendency to segregate at the grain boundaries than boron atoms. We also noticed that the heat treatment before implantation reduces the number of trap carriers and the quantity of doping atoms at the grain boundaries. For low doping, the concentration of the free charge carriers improves after the heat treatment by 100 % and 23 % for arsenic and boron doping respectively.
