    Notes: The most important parameters characterizing the photoelectronic quality of a semiconductor are its charge-carrier mobility lifetime, μτ, products. The two common experimental methods used to determine these parameters in hydrogenated amorphous silicon, a-Si:H, are the steady-state photoconductivity measurement and the life-of-flight charge-collection measurement. The two methods yield quite different results. We show that the difference can be resolved by an understanding of the physics involved in each of the measurements. We show that the steady-state μτ is expected to be up to three orders of magnitude larger than the time-of-flight μτ in undoped a-Si:H. This prediction is in excellent agreement with the corresponding experimental results.

    Notes: This work compares changes in the density of states due to light-induced degradation estimated by photoconductivity with those measured by photothermal deflection spectroscopy (PDS) on a series of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) films having different valence bandtail widths (E0 ). We find that the photoconductivity measurements indicate orders of magnitude larger defect density changes than do the PDS measurements as the valence bandtail becomes broader. This conflict is resolved by showing that this difference is due to changes in the recombination rate coefficient K with valence bandtail width. The absolute change in K increases exponentially with E0. However, the change in K relative to the K of the annealed state decreases with E0, explaining why poor material shows a smaller light-induced effect.

    Notes: We propose a new theory of entropy-driven, charge-state-controlled metastability in semiconductors. The entropy change due to metastable defect ionization near 300 K reduces the Gibbs free energy by up to 0.1 eV. This affects equilibrium populations of the various defect charge states and configurations. An example is found in the experiment of Hamilton, Peaker, and Pantelides [Phys. Rev. Lett. 61, 1679 (1988)] in which a deep level transient spectroscopy signal suddenly disappears during cooling when the ionization entropy term causes a defect's stable local energy minimum to become metastable.

    Notes: Thin-film alkaline-earth-sulfide electroluminescent devices exhibit, under voltage-step excitation, an unexpected decrease in the light output if the voltage is abruptly increased at some time after the beginning of the step. We use this phenomenon to demonstrate that the dynamics of the light emission is controlled by field-dependent trapping and eventual recombination at empty activators rather than impact excitation of activators.

    Notes: Solution of the partial differential equation for diffusion of mobile atoms during solid film growth demonstrates that the observed phase transition in low-temperature silicon epitaxy is triggered by supersaturation of the growing layer with hydrogen. The limiting thickness of the epitaxial layer, hepi, is completely determined by measurable quantities: the flux of hydrogen, the hydrogen diffusion coefficient, and the layer growth rate. Our model accounts for the observed Arrhenius and growth rate dependence of hepi. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
