متن کاملAtomistic models of hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride from first principles
We present a theoretical study of hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride a-SiNx :H , with equal concentrations of Si and N atoms x=1 , for two considerably different densities 2.0 and 3.0 g /cm3 . Densities and hydrogen concentration were chosen according to experimental data. Using first-principles molecular-dynamics within density-functional theory the models were generated by cooling from th...
متن کاملMechanisms of metastability in hydrogenated amorphous silicon
We survey theoretical approaches to understanding the diverse metastable behavior in hydrogenated amorphous silicon. We discuss a recently developed network-rebonding model involving bonding rearrangements of silicon and hydrogen atoms. Using tight-binding molecular dynamics we find non-radiative recombination can break weak silicon bonds with low activation energies, producing dangling bond–fl...
متن کاملPreparation of hydrogenated amorphous silicon tin alloys
2014 This paper describes a new method to obtain hydrogenated amorphous semiconductor alloys. The method is reactive co-evaporation. Silicon tin hydrogenated alloys are prepared under atomic hydrogen atmosphere. We discuss the influence of various parameters of preparation (hydrogen pressure, tungsten tube temperature, substrate temperature, annealing...) on electrical properties of samples. Re...
متن کاملMultiple-quantum NMR study of clustering in hydrogenated amorphous silicon.
Multiple-quantum nuclear-magnetic-resonance techniques are used to study the distribution of hydrogen in hydrogenated amorphous silicon. Using the fact that multiple-quantum excitation is limited by the size of the dipolar-coupled spin system, we show that the predominant bonding environment for hydrogen is a cluster of four to seven atoms. For device-quality films, the concentration of these c...
