A SIMS analysis of deuterium diffusion in hydrogenated amorphous silicon

Secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) has been used to measure the diffusion of deuterium in hydrogenated amorphous silicon. For a film deposited in a dc glow discharge in SiH4 at a substrate temperature of 315 °C, the diffusion data fits D (T) =1.17×10−2 exp(−1.53 eV/kT) cm2/s. This result implies...

Zusammenfassung:Secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) has been used to measure the diffusion of deuterium in hydrogenated amorphous silicon. For a film deposited in a dc glow discharge in SiH4 at a substrate temperature of 315 °C, the diffusion data fits D (T) =1.17×10−2 exp(−1.53 eV/kT) cm2/s. This result implies that degradation of these films due to hydrogen out-diffusion at 100 °C will not be significant until after more than 104 years.
