Hydrogen, introduced into crystalline (c-) or amorphous (a-) silicon (Si), plays an important role in improving Si properties for photovoltaics application. Low temperature proton implantation in c-Si and a-Si or H-doping of Si films introduces metastable hydrogen in the bond-centered-position (BCH), which dissociates…
