Abstract
Raman spectra and electrical conductivity of thin films of hydrogenate d silicon with mixed amorphous-nanocrystalline phase composition have been studied. It is shown that interpretation of experimental data in terms of percolation theory permits one to determine the integrated Ra man-scattering cross-section ratio of the nanocrystalline to amorphous phase and to obtain a quantitative estimate of the volume fraction of each phase.
