Abstract
A carbon film deposited on porous silicon in nitrogen plasma has been investigated by XPS. The presence of different carbon-nitrogen bonds i n the whole carbonitride layer has been established. Irrespective of t he low percentage of nitrogen (about 6%), it is found to participate i n cyanide groups, bonds characteristic of beta-C3N4 as well as in C-N and C=N bonds.
