ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing an electronic component comprising at least one n- or p-doped portion, comprising the steps of: co-depositing inorganic semi-conducting nanoparticles and dopant on a substrate, the nanoparticles being a group four element such as silicon or germanium; fusing the nanoparticles by heating to form a continuous layer; and subsequently; and, recrystallising the layer.
