Our collaborative manuscript, driven by our valued collaborator Rosaria Anna Puglisi, CNR IMM, Catania, Italy, describes a novel approach to silicon doping, where the entire doping procedure is simple, cost-effective, and based on the use of ester molecules, which are less harmful than the standard materials. The proposed work can provide a guideline to achieve less expensive, more environmentally friendly techniques for molecular doping in Si without affecting its performance in the metallurgical junction.
