Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We demonstrated the minority carrier effective lifetime(τeff)of the crystalline silicon substrates at the process steps PN junction formation and also experimentally reported change in τeff of the PN junction under bias voltages application. τeff was markedly decreased by ion-implantation of boron and phosphorus dopant atoms because of generation of serious carrier recombination defects. It was increased by 800oC heating for activating the dopant atoms because the defect states were markedly reduced. After formation of electrodes on PN junction, inverse bias decreasedτeff because the high built-in potential blocked the diffusion of minority carriers. On the other hand, forward bias increased τeff because low built-in potential allowed their diffusion.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究プロジェクトにより、ソーラーセルやトランジスタ製造に広く用いられるPN接合にバイアスを印加した時の実効小数キャリヤライフタイムτeffの挙動を明らかにした。即ち逆バイアスを印加した時シリコン半導体内に形成される高い内蔵電位が障壁となりキャリヤの拡散が阻害されてτeffは低下する。対して順バイアスの時内蔵電位は小さくなり、刈谷の拡散が可能となりτeffは増大することが明らかになった。
