I measured the oxide thickness on woollam before the poly deposition and got a good fit. What is the best material recipe to use for poly? Does anyone have experience with this?

It is very dependent on the deposition temperature, so there is no correct recipe. The best approach is to use a 3 component EMA film. At 580C it will be a combination of crystalline silicon, amorphous silicon and voids. I would suggest a 75-20-5 as the starting percentages. As you go higher in temperature the percentage of crystalline silicon increases. As you go lower, the percentage of amorphous silicon dominates.
