Abstract

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon carbon alloy films of different carbon compositions were prepared by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition system using silane and methane with helium dilution and were characterized by structural and optical techniques to understand the microstructural and overall disorder in amorphous semiconductors. The study demonstrates that the increase of the microstructural disorder results in an increase in the overall disorder and the local defect density induced by carbon incorporation seems to dominate the overall defect structure of the network.
