The allotropic forms of silicon range from a single crystalline structure to a completely unordered amorphous structure with several intermediate varieties. In addition, each of these different forms can possess several names and even more abbreviations, and often cause confusion to non-experts, especially as some materials and their application as a PV technology are of minor significa.

Amorphous silicon (a-Si) is the non-crystalline form of silicon used for solar cells and thin-film transistors in LCDs. Used as semiconductor material for a-Si solar cells, or thin-film silicon solar cells, it is deposited in thin films onto a variety of flexible substrates, such as glass, metal and plastic. Amorphous silicon cells generally feature low efficiency. As a second-generation thin-film. DescriptionSilicon is a fourfold coordinated atom that is normally bonded to four neighboring silicon atoms. In crystalline silicon (c-Si) this tetrahedral structure continues over a large range, thus forming a well-orde. .
Amorphous of silicon and carbon (amorphous silicon , also hydrogenated, a-Si1−xCx:H) are an interesting variant. Introduction of carbon atoms adds extra degrees of freedom for control of th. .
The density of a-Si depends on preparation conditions, for example, for electron beam evaporated films the density depends on thickness, growth temperature and rate, ranging from 3.90×10 to 4.95×10 atom/cm (1.82 to 2.3.
