Photovoltaic technology has now developed to the extent that it is close to fulfilling the vision
of a" solar-energy world," as devices based on this technology are becoming efficient, low …

A self-consistent fluid model of radio-frequency glow discharges has been used to analyze
the existence of two different discharge regimes and the transition between them. The …

In the past 2 years major advances have been made in the understanding of silane–
hydrogen plasmas. In particular, the control of the formation of clusters and even crystallites …

The surface and subsurface processes occurring during the growth of hydrogenated
amorphous silicon (a-Si: H) are analyzed to understand how dangling bond defects and …

A one-dimensional fluid model for radio-frequency glow discharges is presented which
describes silane/hydrogen discharges that are used for the deposition of amorphous silicon …

This review focusses on the plasma-surface interactions and surface processes involved in
a-Si: H thin film growth. We restrict our discussion of growth fluxes to a summary, and do not …

The radio‐frequency glow discharges of several kinds of gases were examined to measure
the ion sheath thickness at the cathode electrode. At intermediate gas pressures around …

Self‐consistent fluid and particle‐in‐cell models of radiofrequency glow discharges have
been used to analyze the existence of different regimes experimentally observed in silane …

The properties of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si: H) deposited at very high growth
rates 6–80 nm/s by means of a remote Ar–H2–SiH4 plasma have been investigated as a …

The mechanisms of a-Si: H film deposition from SiH 4 glow discharges are analyzed. Recent
progress in modeling and diagnostics of electrical power dissipation in DC and RF …
