The electrical properties of polycrystalline silicon films

Boron doses of 1×1012–5×1015/cm2 were implanted at 60 keV into 1‐μm‐thick polysilicon films. After annealing at 1100 °C for 30 min, Hall and resistivity measurements were made over a temperature range −50–250 °C. It was found that as a function of doping concentration, the Hall mobility showed a minimum at about 2×1018/cm3 doping. The electrical activation energy was found to be about half the energy gap value of single‐crystalline silicon for lightly doped samples and decreased to less than 0.025 eV at a doping of 1×1019/cm3. The carrier concentration was very small at doping levels below 5×1017/cm3 and increased rapidly as the doping concentration was increased. At 1×1019/cm3 doping, the carrier concentration was about 90% of the doping concentration. A grain‐boundary model including the trapping states was proposed. Carrier concentration and mobility as a function of doping concentration and the mobility and resistivity as a function of temperature were calculated from the model. The theoretical and ex...
