Popis: Amorphous SiCS : H : F films have been deposited by a reactive rf magnetron sputtering of Si target in Ar-CH4 and SF6 gas mixtures. The effects of RF power P under the deposition on the electrical and optical properties of the films were investigated in the range of P from 75 to 400 W. With decreasing P below 100 W, the bonding configuration of constituent elements changes apparently; Si-C and C-H bonds increase and S- or F-related bonds could be observed. The results that the optical bandgap increases and the conductivity decreases rapidly below 100 W could be attributed to these structural changes, which involve the increase in the disorderness, owing to the complicated bonding structure.
