Abstract

Silicon dioxide films were deposited by the (industrially applied) expanding thermal plasma technique using a gas mixture of argon-oxygen-octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (OMCTS) and at deposition rates in the range of 5-23 nm/s. The films composition was investigated by means of spectroscopic ellipsometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Rutherford backscattering. The composition was close to that of thermal oxide, with only a small residual hydrogen content of 2 at.%. The surface passivation of the silicon dioxide films was tested on 1.3Omegacm n-type FZ crystalline silicon wafers. A good level of surface passivation of 54 cm/s was reached after a 15 minute forming gas anneal at 600 degC
