Abstract
Room temperature conductance transients in the SiNx:H/Si interface are reported. Silicon nitride thin films were directly deposited on silic on by the low temperature electron-cyclotron-resonance plasma method. The shape of the conductance transients varies with the frequency at w hich they are obtained. This behavior is explained in terms of a disor der-induced gap-state continuum model for the interfacial defects. A p erfect agreement between experiment and theory is obtained proving the validity of the model. (C) 1997 American Institute of Physics.
