Abstract
The near-surface layer of n-Si single crystal wafers has been subjected to microdoping by hydrogen ions in the plasma of a pulsed beam discharge. The resistivity and the current density of the samples have been studied as functions of the hydrogen treatment time. The hydrogen-modified n-Si samples exhibit photo emf. The results are interpreted within the framework of a qualitative model.
