Abstract

Both microcrystalline and epitaxially grown Si thin films were prepared at low substrate temperature from different precursors under control of atomic hydrogen. With the precursors, SiHn (n≤3), generated by plasma-induced decomposition of Sil4, microcrystalline Si was formed through the island-like clusters with the aid of atomic hydrogen, while two-dimensional growth was caused with the precursors, SiHnFm (n+m≤3) generated from SiF4.
