  Boron (B) and phosphorus (P) are the most problematic impurities to be removed in the production of solar-grade silicon by the metallurgical process. In this work, the distribution of B and P between CaO-(La2O3)-SiO2 slags and Si-10 mass pct Sn melt was experimentally studied. B distribution coefficient increased from 2.93 in binary CaO-SiO2 slag to 3.33 and 3.65 with 2 and 10 mass pct La2O3 additions, respectively. In the followed acid-leaching experiments, the slag-treated Si-Sn alloys exhibited higher B and P removal than that of the initial alloy without slag treatment. Molecular dynamics simulations were performed to study the effect of La2O3 addition on the slag structural and transport properties. A novel oxygen classification method was proposed to distinguish the different structural roles of La and Ca in the CaO-La2O3-SiO2 system. It was found that La3+ prefers to stay in the depolymerized region, mostly connects with 6-7 non-bridging oxygen, and requires a weak charge compensation with Ca2+. Possible silicothermic reduction was evaluated to discuss the slag chemistry and the mass transfer between slag and metal phase. A thermodynamic model was derived to theoretically study the alloying effect on impurity distribution in slag refining where positive interaction coefficient and high alloying concentration were found most beneficial to improve the impurity removal.

  Nanoporous amorphous silicon (a-Si) with <5 nm cylindrical pores have been fabricated by phase separation of aluminum (Al) and silicon, forming self-assembled Al nanowires (NWs), followed by subsequent removal of Al by wet etching. This work studies the removal process of the Al NWs when using the different etchants HCl, H3PO4, and H2SO4. Total reflectance measurements are used in combination with theoretical modeling to estimate the lateral gradient of Al concentration formed during the etching process. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy is used to show that the choice of Al etching agent has implications for the surface states of the remaining a-Si matrix. We have found that H3PO4 is the most efficient etching agent, while HCl provides a less oxidized a-Si matrix in addition to the least reflective surface. By varying the etching agent, the degree of surface oxidation and shape of Al gradient throughout the film can be tuned.

  In this paper, the separation of phosphorus from metallurgical-grade silicon was investigated based on an Mg alloying and HCl leaching approach. Experimental results show that P concentration was reduced from initial 15.1 ppmw to 0.2 ppmw with also large extent removal of metallic impurities by two times Mg alloying-leaching purification. The mechanism of enhanced P separation is clarified owing to the strong affinity between Mg and P, which is validated by SIMS elemental mapping. A two-parameter analytical model was developed to predict the P removal degree based on the variables of alloying metal concentration and interaction coefficient between alloying metal and P. The model is validated with experimental results and the interaction coefficient ε^P_{Mg In Si} was obtained as −10.8. This approach can be applied to model the removal of impurity which follows Gulliver-Scheil solidification from other binary alloying systems. Furthermore, in order to study the effect of applied alloying-leaching operation times, a model was proposed which establishes the mathematical relationships among key processing variables like initial and target P concentrations, the amount of the alloying metal, and the process operation times.

  We present a study of the surface effects and optical properties of the self-assembled nanostructures comprised of vertically aligned 5 nm-diameter Al nanowires embedded in an amorphous Si matrix (a-Si:Al). The controlled (partial) removal of Al nanowires in a selective etching process yielded nanoporous a-Si media with a variable effective surface area. Different spectroscopy techniques, such as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV-Vis spectrophotometry and photoluminescence (PL), have been combined to investigate the impact of such nanostructuring on optical absorption and emission properties. We also examine long-term exposure to air ambient and show that increasing level of surface oxidation determines the oxide defect-related nature of the dominant PL emission from the nanoporous structures. The role of bulk, nanosize and surface effects in optical properties has been separated and quantified, providing a better understanding of the potential of such nanoporous a-Si:Al structures for future device developments

  Silicon Carbide (SiC) radiation detectors are increasingly gaining recognition for their enhanced performance in diverse applications including nuclear radiation detection, functioning under high-temperature environments, x-ray detection, neutron detection and dosimetry. SiC comes out on top with its ability to operate efficiently in challenging environments. Compared to its primary competitor silicon (Si), 4H-SiC polytype has higher thermal conductivity, superior temperature stability, and a wider bandgap. In this thesis a scalable fabrication technique for n-type 4H-SiC Schottky diodes is proposed, serving as a stepping stone for the future fabrication of 4H-SiC-based detectors. The work encompasses the development and fine-tuning of photolithography processes, fabrication of 4H-SiC Schottky diodes, and their characterization. The photolithography process is based on the lift-off method. It involves two layers: (i) positive resist and (ii) a so-called lift-off layer to provide an undercut for easier removal of the resist. Such parameters as the exposure and development times were optimized. Optical microscopy and cross-sectional scanning electron microscopy were employed for optimizing the lithography process. Nickel, deposited by e-beam evaporation, was used for formation of Schottky diodes. Current-Voltage (IV) measurements show that the reverse-bias leakage current for most of the diodes is below the detection limit of the instruments used. The reverse saturation currents and the ideality factors are deduced from the fitting of the diode equation to the measurements for the forward bias. The lowest ideality factor and saturation current are 1.14 and 3.24∗10−21𝐴, respectively. The highest breakdown voltage obtained is 350 V. Capacitance-Voltage (CV) measurements have revealed the doping concentration in the epi-layer to be 1.2−1.3∗1016 𝑐𝑚−3. The depletion width at 100 V is deduced to be around 3 μm. The highest built-in voltage is found to be 1.6 V for 200 μm diodes, which is comparable with a theoretic value of 1.7 V. It is observed that smaller diodes (200 μm) demonstrate better characteristics, such as ideality factor, breakdown voltage and build-in voltage, compared to larger ones (2000 μm). We hypothesise that this is due to surface imperfections in the SiC epi-layer or dust particles from poor sample handling: As the diode size increases, there is a higher probability of a surface imperfection or a dust particle to occur between SiC and the metal, which will be detrimental for the Schottky diode. CV characterization of metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) structures is used to examine thermally grown silicon oxide (𝑆𝑖𝑂2) and aluminium oxide (𝐴𝑙2𝑂3), deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD). MOS with thermally grown 𝑆𝑖𝑂2 reveal CV curves typical for a high-quality MOS structure, validating the insulating and passivating properties of the oxide. In comparison, ALD-grown 𝐴𝑙2 𝑂3 did not manifest reproducible and consistent CV characteristics.
