Title
Plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor-deposition of amorphous films
Author
Abstract
We describe plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition for decomposing a mixture of two gaseous hydrides, GeH4 and H2Se, to yield layers of amorphous GexSe1-x. We discuss the influence of the gas ratios and the deposition conditions (pressure, rf power input) on the chemical composition and homogeneity of the films. The composition of the Ge-Se samples varied between Ge-rich (typically Ge0.66Se0.34) and Se-rich deposits (maximum Ge0.23Se0.77) Information concerning the structure of as-deposited Ge-Se layers was obtained from infrared and Raman spectroscopy. Ge-rich films were unstable in air and showed in their IR spectra broad absorption bands of Ge-O vibrations, increasing in intensity when keeping them in air for a long time.
