    摘要: Methods and apparatus are presented for monitoring the deposition and/or post-deposition processing of semiconductor thin films using photoluminescence imaging. The photoluminescence images are analysed to determine one or more properties of the semiconductor film, and variations thereof across the film. These properties are used to infer information about the deposition process, which can then be used to adjust the deposition process conditions and the conditions of subsequent processing steps. The methods and apparatus have particular application to thin film-based solar cells.

    摘要: The invention relates to a sensor adapted for electrical connection to a power source having an electrical contact means (3). The sensor has a first insulating substrate (1) carrying a first electrode (2) and a second insulating substrate (7) carrying a second electrode (6). The electrodes are disposed to face each other in spaced apart relationship, sandwiching a spacer (4) therebetween. A first cut-out portion extends through the first insulating substrate (1) and a spacer (4) to expose a first contact area (23) on the second insulating substrate (7). This permits the electrical contact means (31) to effect electrical connection with the first contact (23) which in turn is in electrically conductive connection with the second electrode (6). A similar contact arrangement may be disposed on the opposite side of the sensor.

    摘要: A method of photoluminence (PL) imaging of a series of silicon wafers, the method including the step of: utilizing incident illumination of a wavelength greater than 808 nm. The present invention further provides a method of analysing silicon semiconductor material utilising various illumination, camera and filter combinations.
