ABSTRACTA KrF (248 nm) excimer laser with a 38 ns pulse width was used to study pulsed laser annealing of AIN/GaN bi-layers and dopant activation of Mg-implanted GaN thin films. For the AIN/GaN bi-layers, cathodoluminescence (CL) showed an increase in the intensity of the GaN band-edge peak at 3.47 eV after pulsed laser annealing at an energy density of 2000 mJ/cm2. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry of a Mg-implanted A1N (75 nm thick)/GaN (1.0 μm thick) thin-film heterostructure showed a 20% reduction of the 4He+ backscattering yield after laser annealing at an energy density of 400 mJ/cm2. CL measurements revealed a 410 nm emission peak indicating the incorporation of Mg after laser processing.

AbstractCuInSe2 (CIS) is commercially processed using energy intensive vacuum processes such as sputtering and thermal evaporation followed by thermal annealing. In order to reduce the cost of fabricating CIS photovoltaic absorber layers we need fast and cheap processing methods. We have investigated the use of non-vacuum electrochemical deposition (ED) followed by ultra violet pulsed laser annealing (UV-PLA). We report here on the results of ns pulsed KrF irradiation of ED CIS films and ED CIS films which were first annealed in a Se atmosphere.

Studies of pulsed laser annealing (PLA) on semiconductor thin films were performed to examine changes of the optical and structural parameters due to the laser heat. Thin films of ZnS/ZnSe were deposited on quartz substrates at a pressure of 8.2*10-6 mbar using PVD technique. These thin films were annealed at different laser powers using CO2 pulsed laser. Transmission and reflection spectra were recorded before and after the annealing process. A decrease in the transmission and reflection spectra after annealing is observed. The absorption coefficient, refractive index, damping coefficient and dielectric constant were calculated before and after the annealing process. Changes in the optical parameters are found after the annealing process. The energy band gaps of ZnS and ZnSe have been determined. Upon annealing, an increase in the absorption coefficient is observed which is due to an improvement in the granular nanostructure of the ZnS/ZnSe thin films. XRD patterns of the prepared samples were obtained before and after the annealing procedure and revealed an enhancement in the crystallite structure upon annealing.

The influence of CO2 pulsed laser annealing on microstructural properties and crystal defects of nanocrystalline ZnSe thin films have been studied. X-ray diffraction was utilized to study these issues. Laser annealing led to enhance the film quality and decrease the crystal defects.
