Abstract

The effect of implanted hydrogen on the resistivity of polycrystalline silicon films has been investigated. The observed reduction in resistivity due to hydrogen is most pronounced for lightly doped films, and is accentuated by a 450°C anneal. An increase in Hall mobility is also observed. The pre-implant resistivity is completely recovered by annealling at 600°C. Diffusion of hydrogen at low temperatures is monitored by local resistivity changes detected with spreading resistance measurements.
