Electrodepositing amorphous Ni-W alloys for MEMS

The wearing resistance and corrosion resistance of Ni-W alloy films is more excellent than that of Ni film. As a contrast, wearing resistance and corrosion resistance of Ni and NiW films are investigated in this paper. The results show that electrodeposited amorphous Ni-W alloy films have good wearing resistance and excellent corrosion resistance compared with electrodeposited Ni films. Moreover, the Ni-W alloy films still had good properties after heat treatment. The good wearing resistance and corrosion resistance of amorphous Ni-W alloy films are associated with crystal structure.

Photoconductivity of two-phase hydrogenated silicon films

Electrical, photoelectric, and optical properties of hydrogenated amorphous silicon films with various ratios between the nanocrystalline and amorphous phases in the structure of the material have been studied. On passing from an amorphous to a nanocrystalline structure, the room-temperature conductivity of the films increases by more than five orders of magnitude. With increasing fraction of the nanocrystalline component in the film structure, the steady-state photoconductivity varies nonmonotonically and is determined by the variation in the carrier mobility and lifetime. Introduction of a small fraction of nanocrystals into the amorphous matrix leads to a decrease in the absorption in the defect-related part of the spectrum and, accordingly, to a lower concentration of dangling bonds, which are the main recombination centers in amorphous hydrogenated silicon. At the same time, the photoconductivity in these films becomes lower, which may be due to appearance of new centers that are related to nanocrystals and reduce the lifetime of nonequilibrium carriers.     

Simulating the deposition and synthesis of amorphous hydrogenated carbon films

The effect of synthesis conditions on the deposition of amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a-C:H) is estimated. Based on the expressions obtained in the simulation, the effect of partial hydrogen pressures and rf-radiation power on the deposition rate, composition, and structure of the a-C:H films is explained. The model of nucleation and growth of amorphous and crystalline diamondlike materials is developed [1, 2]. The model is expected to simplify the search for optimal regimes for synthesizing the materials with the specified composition, structure, and properties.

Specific features of photoelectric and optical properties of amorphous hydrogenated silicon films produced by plasmochemical deposition from monosilane–hydrogen mixture

Photoelectric and optical properties of amorphous hydrogenated silicon films produced by plasmochemical deposition from a monosilane-hydrogen mixture have been studied at a fraction of hydrogen in the mixture that corresponds to the onset of formation of a nanocrystalline phase in the structure of the films obtained. A behavior untypical of amorphous hydrogenated silicon films is observed for the photoconductivity and the spectral dependence of the absorption coefficient. The temperature dependences of the photoconductivity in the films under study are found to vary with the energy of incident photons. At a photon energy of 1.3 eV, temperature quenching of photoconductivity is observed. Prolonged illumination of the films led to a certain decrease in the absorption coefficient at photon energies in the range 1.2–1.5 eV. The results obtained are attributed to the possible presence of silicon nanocrystals in the structure of the films and to the influence of these nanocrystals on their photoelectric and optical properties.     

Effect of deposition temperature on polymorphous silicon thin films by PECVD: Role of hydrogen

Pm-Si:H which has improved optical and transport properties as well as stability compared to hydrogenated amorphous silicon is studied. In order to understand the effect of the growth temperature on pm-Si:H films, hydrogen bonding and stability were analyzed in this work. Samples grown at different temperatures were compared and a change on the films morphology and structure was observed. HRTEM images evidence nanocrystals with approximate size of 9 nm. A growth surface reorganization was observed at an almost constant deposition rate. Increasing the deposition temperature leads to a more ordered, compact and smooth structure of the pm-Si:H films. Hydrogen interaction with the growing surface is related to the deposition temperature, changing the growth of the amorphous matrix due to hydrogen surface diffusion into lower energy and more stable positions. The total hydrogen in the film is reduced as temperature increases and hydrogen becomes more tightly bonded, which changes in a non monotonous way how the nanocrystals are incorporated and their environment. The optoelectronic properties of the films are directly related to the incorporation of hydrogen and whether it is weakly or tightly bonded. A diminution of the optical gap of the pm-Si:H films in the range from 1.71 to 1.65 eV was observed with the increase of the deposition temperature in the range from 175 to 275 °C.     

Features of the local structure of the Se95Te5 chalcogenide vitreous semiconductor doped with samarium

The Raman spectra of evaporated amorphous selenium films, of films of undoped Se₉₅Te₅ chalcogenide vitreous semiconductor, and of similar films doped with Sm are studied. It is shown that the Raman spectra of amorphous selenium consist of two bands with peaks at 40.5 and 254 cm^?1 and the spectra of other samples consist of three bands with peaks at 37.1–40.3, 208.8–211.9, and 248.4–253.3 cm^?1, depending on the degree of doping. The observed features are attributed to variations in the relative fractions of various structural units and to possible changes in the local structure at the level of middle- and short-range order.
