- Effects of Plasma Conditions on Density of Microcrystalline Silicon
- Micro-Wave PECVD with a linear plasma source is applied for deposition of intrinsic layers for mc-Si solar cells. An important advantage of the linear MW-PECVD method is the capability of large-area deposition of Si layers at high deposition rates. This makes MW-PECVD method a promising method for large-scale industrial fabrication...
