Apparatus for forming non-single-crystal semiconductor thin film, method for forming non-single-crystal semiconductor thin film, and method for producing photovoltaic device |
摘要 |
An apparatus for forming a non-single-crystal semiconductor thin film comprising a film deposition chamber having a film-forming space surrounded by a film deposition chamber wall and a beltlike substrate, and an external chamber surrounding the deposition chamber wall is provided. While the beltlike substrate is moved in a longitudinal direction, a film-forming gas is introduced through a gas supply device into the film-forming space and microwave energy is radiated from a microwave applicator into the film-forming space to induce a microwave plasma, and thereby form a non-single-crystal semiconductor thin film on a surface of the beltlike substrate. A cooling mechanism and a temperature-increasing mechanism are provided to cover a part of an outside surface of the deposition chamber wall. An apparatus for forming a non-single-crystal semiconductor thin film where the gas supply device comprises a gas manifold set apart from the deposition chamber wall is another embodiment.
