Stacks of hydrogen-lean aluminum oxide, deposited via plasma-assisted atomic-layer-deposition, and hydrogen-rich plasma-enhanced chemical vapor-deposited silicon nitride (SiNx) are applied to boron-doped float-zone silicon ...

The recombination centre that emerges in boron- and oxygen-containing silicon was thought to be a complex of a substitutional boron atom Bs and an oxygen dimer O2. However in material co-doped with boron and phosphorus, ...

Due to the increasing demand for vehicles with a low fuel consumption and consequently low emissions, lightweight construction is an important task in the automotive industry. High-strength profile parts reduce the total ...

Products or semi-finished products featuring tailored properties are highly relevant for many industrial applications. Hence, new technologies that allow to locally adapt mechanical properties are of key interest. For ...

A potentially cost-effective ion implanter for solar cells has become commercially available very recently. As the emitter dopant profiles differ from the standard diffusions, a combination of process simulation and device ...
