The effect of hydrogen on the properties of amorphous carbon nitride films deposited onto Si substrates by magnetron sputtering device has been studied. The influence of hydrogen to roughness, porous character of films, composition and residual stress was investigated by atomic force microscopy, thermal desorption mass spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning low energy electron microscopy and by goniometer equipped with Cu X-ray tube. The adding of hydrogen to nitrogen discharge a causes decrease in the high value of compressive stress (elimination of delamination of the films, increasing of nitrogen content in the bulk). On the other hand hydrogen increases roughness and porosity.

Abstract Surface electronic properties of GaP nanowires were investigated using scanning probe force microscopy. I-V curves of individual free-standing NWs with different doping types were obtained. Surface Fermi level positions in the nanowires of different crystal phases and doping types were extracted using phase-modulated Kelvin probe force microscopy. The results indicate on weak Fermi level pinning in GaP nanowires. The difference between wurtzite and zinc blende GaP work function is observed.
