Photo-induced degradation and stability in semiconductor devices

  • 1. Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge

Description

A new theory for the structure and electronic properties of disordered systems is briefly reviewed, particularly with regard to its application to amorphous silicon alloys. They then consider the case of nonequilibrium free-carrier concentrations. A model for the observed photo-induced effects in amorphous silicon alloys is proposed. The model is consistent with a wide array of experimental data and suggested several techniques for the control and elimination of photogenerated defect formation in amorphous semiconductors
