Abstract
We report the successful synthesis of Ge clusters embedded in a-SiN(y) :H matrix prepared by the plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (P ECVD) method. Chemical microstructural characteristics of this granula r thin film were analysed using the infrared absorption, x-ray diffrac tion, Raman scattering, and transmission electron microscopy. Finally we discuss briefly the synthesis mechanism of this new material.
