Abstract
A first facet of each of a plurality of pyramids on a surface of a workpiece is doped to a first dose while a second facet and a third facet of each of the plurality of pyramids is simultaneously doped to a second dose different than the first dose. The first facets may enable low resistance contacts and the second and third facets may enable higher current generation and an improved blue response. Ion implantation may be used to perform the doping.
