Abstract
Laser crystn. of a-Si:H on PES, PET and AryLite polymer substrates is reported. For each material, the glass transition temp.

Thick intrinsic amorphous Si films were deposited on the substrates by Plasma Enhanced Chem. Vapor Deposition at 120-250a. Dehydrogenation and crystn. were obtained by high energy (10 J) XeCl pulsed excimer laser. The irradn. conditions were varied to study their influence on the elec. and optical properties of crystd. material. Structural characterization was performed by x-ray Diffraction.
