Hydrogen induced degradation: a possible mechanism for light- and elevated temperature- induced degradation in n-type silicon
- Abstract:
-
In this work, we demonstrate a form of minority carrier degradation on n-type Cz silicon that affects both the bulk and surface related lifetimes. We identify three key behaviors of the degradation mechanism; 1) a firing dependence for the extent of degradation, 2) the appearance of bulk degradation when wafers are fired in the presence of a diffused emitter and 3) a firing related apparent surface degradation when wafers are fired in the absence of an emitter. We further report a defect capt...
