Abstract

The various mechanisms of electrical conduction and dielectric loss in non-metallic amorphous films are examined from the standpoint of their structure. A distinction is made between simple amorphous films such as silicon germanium and other semiconductors, glassy films, and, finally, noncrystalline polymers, both conducting and insulating. This distinction enables one to obtain some insight into the likely mechanisms which determine the dc conduction phenomena and the ac conduction or loss processes.
