From the above table, it can be seen that:
(1) Compared with the examples 5-6, the invention can be seen that the decomposition efficiency and decomposition products of the raw materials are ensured by controlling the temperature of the hot wire in the hot wire chemical vapor deposition process to be 1600-2000 ℃, thereby avoiding the generation of byproducts in the reaction process from influencing the film quality. If the temperature is lower than 1600 ℃, not only the decomposition efficiency of the raw material is affected, but also the decomposition product has adverse substances, affecting the film performance.
(2) Compared with the embodiments 7-8, the embodiment 1 can see that the film forming quality is prevented from being influenced by overlarge concentration of the phosphine by controlling the deposition pressure to be 1-50 Pa under the condition of ensuring the deposition rate, if the deposition pressure is lower than 1Pa, the film deposition efficiency is influenced, and if the deposition pressure is higher than 50Pa, the concentration of the phosphine is increased, and Si-H-P compounds without electric activity are easily generated, so that the carrier concentration is reduced, and the film forming quality is influenced.
(3) Compared with the embodiments 9-10, the embodiment 1 shows that the carrier gas is carried into the tetraethoxysilane, namely the carrier gas blows through tetraethoxysilane liquid, so that the tetraethoxysilane is carried into the reaction cavity according to the evaporation effect, the concentration of the tetraethoxysilane entering the reaction cavity is further ensured by controlling the temperature of the tetraethoxysilane liquid, when the temperature is lower than 85 ℃, the concentration of the gaseous tetraethoxysilane is low, the reaction amount is small, the deposition efficiency is influenced, and when the temperature is higher than 100 ℃, the concentration of the gaseous tetraethoxysilane is high, the decomposition is easy to be incomplete, so that impurity particles exist in a deposited film, and the film forming quality is influenced.
(4) Compared with the comparative example 1, the method disclosed by the embodiment 1 has the advantages that based on hot wire chemical vapor deposition equipment, only through introducing protective gas into a reaction cavity and adjusting the distance of a hot wire, phosphorane and tetraethoxysilane are used as raw materials in the hot wire chemical vapor deposition equipment, the preparation of the phosphorus-doped amorphous silicon film is completed, further, heating annealing is carried out, the hot wire is enabled to be close to the surface of the silicon wafer, the silicon wafer is rapidly heated through the heat radiation of the hot wire, rapid annealing is realized, doped phosphorus atoms are activated, and the phosphorus-doped polycrystalline silicon film is prepared.
