| Abstract | Alternating multilayer films of hydrogen diluted hydrogenated protocrystalline silicon (pc-Si:H) were prepared using a plasma- enhanced chemical vapor deposition technique. The microstructure of the deposited films and photoresponse characteristics of their Schottky diode structures were investigated by Raman scattering spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and photocurrent spectra. Microstructure and optical absorption analyses suggest that the prepared films were pc-Si:H multilayer films with a two-phase structure of silicon nanocrystals (NCs) and its amorphous counterpart and the band gap of the films showed a decreasing trend with increasing crystalline fraction. Photocurrent measurement revealed that silicon NCs facilitate the spatial separation of photo-generated carriers, effectively reduce the non-radiative recombination rate, and induce a photoresponse peak value shift towards the short-wavelength side with increasing crystallinity. However, the carrier traps near the surface defects of silicon NCs and their spatial carrier confinement result in a significant reduction of the diode photoresponse in the long-wavelength region. An enhancement of the photoresponse from 350 to 1000 nm was observed when applying an increased bias voltage in the diode, showing a favorable carrier transport and an effective collection of photo-generated carriers was achieved. Both the spatial separation of the restricted electron-hole pairs in silicon NCs and the de-trapping of the carriers at their interface defects are responsible for the red-shift in photoresponse spectra and enhancement of external quantum efficiency. The results provide fundamental data for the carrier transport control of high-efficiency pc-Si:H solar cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
