摘要
Amorphous CN, thin films with x up to 1.1 were obtained by ArF excimer laser chemical vapor deposition (CVD) from NH3/CCl4 or cyanogen azide NCN3 as precursors in the substrate temperature range of 200-650 degrees C. The films are optically transparent and electrically insulating. Depending on the preparation conditions their Tauc gap varies between 1.4 and 3.1 eV. The X-ray photon spectroscopy C 1s and N 1s peaks reveal two bonding states of carbon and nitrogen in the bulk, respectively. When heated to 450 degrees C the CNx films start to decompose into HCN, (CN)(2) and N-2 to completely vanish at 700 degrees C. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
