Definitions
- the invention relates to a dispersion which contains nanosize silicon particles and to the production and use of this dispersion.
- the invention further relates to a process for producing a polycrystalline silicon layer.
- Processes in which polycrystalline layers are applied to a substrate are known in the literature. These are generally deposition processes. Plasma-aided chemical gas-phase deposition processes such as PECVD and ECR-CVD are most frequently used. In addition, the hot wire technique and ion-aided deposition processes (IAD processes) have attained some importance. A disadvantage of all these processes is that they are very complicated, costly and not very efficient.
- the metal-induced layer exchange process starts out from a metal layer, generally aluminium, applied to the substrate.
- an aluminium film is firstly vapour-deposited onto a substrate.
- An amorphous silicon layer is subsequently applied by sputtering.
- silicon atoms diffuse into the aluminium layer and form crystalline silicon nuclei. These nuclei grow to become grains and displace the aluminium. Finally, adjacent grains form a continuous polycrystalline silicon layer on the substrate.
- the overall process is thus a layer exchange between aluminium and silicon. It is generally assumed that the driving force for the aluminium-induced layer exchange is the energy difference of the Gibbs potentials of amorphous silicon and crystalline silicon.
- the process of aluminium-induced layer exchange has advantages in terms of simplicity, temperatures required and, associated therewith, useability of the substrates .
- a disadvantage is that the silicon layer has to be applied by vapour deposition or sputtering. This step is complicated and expensive.
