Y. Bounouh et al., A COMPARATIVE-STUDY OF THE MICROSTRUCTURE AND THE OPTOELECTRONIC PROPERTIES OF 2 SERIES OF A-C-H FILMS PREPARED BY DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES, Annales de chimie, 19(7-8), 1994, pp. 447-452
A study of the relations between the microstructure and the optoelectr
onic properties of two series of a-C:H films prepared by different tec
hniques is performed using complementary experimental techniques. The
results, which are analysed with a two-phase model, show that the two
series differ by the size of the sp(2) C clusters, and that hydrogen p
lays a significant role in the microstructure and its modifications up
on annealing.
