Abstract

See full text

In one aspect, crystallization of multiple layers of amorphous materials is disclosed. In one embodiment, multiple layers of amorphous materials such as amorphous silicon, silicon carbide, and/or germanium are deposited using deposition methods such as PECVD or sputtering. A layer of metal such as aluminum is deposited on the surface of the deposited amorphous materials using sputtering or evaporation, and the structure is annealed in a hydrogen environment. The structure is contained on a semiconductor substrate, glass, a flexible metal/organic film, or other type of substrate.
