Abstract
To improve the photoconductivity of amorphous carbon nitride films a-C Nx, hydrogenation was tried. Hydrogenation was not observed in a-CNx f ilm but the improvement of the electronic properties was observed in a few layers of the films. Therefore, to get a better photoconductive a -CNx, the layer-by-layer method was tried with success. Photoconductiv ity to dark conductivity ratios of a-CNx films, obtained by this layer -by-layer method, were 5 x 10(6) on excitation with white light of 100 mW cm(-2). (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
