Abstract

Amorphous and micro-crystalline Si films have been deposited by the hot-wire technique on deeply structured columnar ZnO films. It is found that nearly perfect conformal deposition occurs for amorphous films, similar to what was previously found for rf-plasma deposited films. Micro-crystalline films deposited by the hot wire technique are less conformal since deposition occurs preferentially on protruding features of the substrate, while films deposited by rf-plasma CVD exhibit high conformality.
