Abstract
SEM/EBIC technique has been used recently to investigate both bulk and grain boundaries (GBs) electrical properties in germanium polycrystals [l]. In this work, the minority carrier diffusion length has been deduced from Schottky contact efficiency measurements using an original model taking into account the recombination of electronic carriers at the metal-germanium interface [2]. The EBIC observation of GBs shows three different behaviours : i) active suboundaries, ii) inactive suboundaries and iii) inactive highly misoriented grain boundaries. These defects have been characterized from a structural point of view using X-Ray topography (Berg Barrett) and ECP (Electron Channeling Pattern).
