Abstract
A review of amorphous silicon alloys (other than a-Si: H) is presented. The main focus is on experimental results. Methods of fabricating amorphous alloys are classified and their basic operational principles outlined. The electrical and optical properties of amorphous silicon based alloys are then described, and a summary of existing and potential applications given. Conspicuous gaps in the fabrication, understanding and application of these materials are pointed out. A comprehensive (though not exhaustive) bibliography is presented, with references to all amorphous silicon alloys studied up to the summer of 1986.
