Research Abstract |
Evaluation method of crystallinity in poly-crystallized silicon thin film was investigated by alternative surface photo-voltage (AC SPV). Sensitive AC SPV measurement was achieved by the change of light source for carrier excitation from light-emitting diode (LED) to laser diode (LD). The ratio of AC SPV to radius of grain in poly-silicon thin film crystallized by excimer laser annealing was estimated about 1 mV/nm. Furthermore, it was shown that there is a problem of the saturation in AC SPV with high power light irradiation.
