摘要: Amorphous hydrogenated silicon has been deposited by plasma decomposition of Si2H6 and Si3H8. A major feature the process is a deposition rate enhancement over factor 20 compared to monosilane. The resulting films are compositionally similar monosilane‐produced intrinsic a‐Si(H), but at 300 °C substrate temperature show greater photoconductivity. On basis our experiments known thermolysis chemistry silanes, conjectural model for presented.
