Popis: | Using aluminum oxide (Al2 O3) films deposited by high-rate spatial atomic layer deposition (ALD), we achieve very low surface recombination velocities of 6.5 cm/s on p -type and 8.1 cm/s on n -type crystalline silicon wafers. Using spatially separated reaction zones instead of the conventional time-sequenced precursor dosing enables growth rates up to 70 nm/min, whereas conventional ALD limits the growth rate to 3 films. We demonstrate an excellent thermal stability of the passivation quality. © 2010 American Institute of Physics. |
