Amorphous Hydrogenated Boron Carbide

ABSTRACTWe have grown amorphous hydrogenated boron carbide thin films by rf plasma decomposition of diborane and methane. The chemical composition, infrared absorption, optical absorption, and microhardness of these thin films were measured. As a function of increasing diborane concentration in the feedstock, we observe increasing boron and hydrogen concentrations, increasing infrared absorption at 1330 cm−1 due to boron icosahedra, increasing optical bandgaps, and an unchanging microhardness in the grown films. The microhardness should have decreased due to the increasing hydrogen concentration; this expected decrease may have been balanced by an increased microhardness due to the boron icosahedra.

AbstractCopper migration is observed in the SEM in amorphous GeSe2/Cu thin films when an electron beam is focused in pulsed or continuous operation on the surface of these thin films. The phenomenon can be explained using a simple model in which the population of D- centers is considered to increase upon electron irradiation. The increase in the D- center population is envisaged as due to the breaking of bonds by the electron radiation and by the constant presence of negative charge in irradiated regions. Changes in copper concentration of 20%-30% have been obtained. Additionally we have observed the local crystallization of amorphous GeSe2/Cu thin films in the TEM when the samples were subjected to intense electron bombardment. The crystalline product has been identified as Berzelianite (Cu2Se).
