MOSFETs having stacked metal gate electrodes and methods of making the same are provided. The MOSFET gate electrode includes a gate metal layer formed atop a high-k gate dielectric layer. The metal gate electrode is formed through a low oxygen content deposition process without charged-ion bombardment to the wafer substrate. Metal gate layer thus formed has low oxygen content and may prevent interfacial oxide layer regrowth. The process of forming the gate metal layer generally avoids plasma damage to the wafer substrate.

A thin film solar cell and process for forming the same. The solar cell includes a bottom electrode layer, a light absorbing semiconductor layer, and top electrode layer. The absorber layer includes a p-type interior region and an n-type exterior region formed around the perimeter of the layer from a modified native portion of the p-type interior region, thereby forming an active n-p junction that is an intrinsic part of the absorber layer. The top electrode layer is electrically connected to the bottom electrode layer via a scribe line formed in the absorber layer that defines sidewalls. The n-type exterior region of the absorber layer extends along both the horizontal top of the absorber layer, and onto the vertical sidewalls of the scribe line to increase the area of available n-p junction in the solar cell thereby improving solar conversion efficiency.

A method and system for forming a chalcogenide or chalcopyrite-based semiconductor material provide for the simultaneous deposition of metal precursor materials from a target and Se radials from a Se radical generation system. The Se radical generation system includes an evaporator that produces an Se vapor and a plasma chamber that uses a plasma to generate a flux of Se radicals. Multiple such deposition operations may take place in sequence, each having the deposition temperature accurately controlled. The deposited material may include a compositional concentration gradient or may be a composite material, and may be used as an absorber layer in a solar cell.
