Abstract

The utility of various electron optical methods to characterize the microstructure and composition of thin films of amorphous silicon-carbon films formed by plasma-activated CVD of SiH4 and CH4 has been investigated. The techniques employed include conventional and high resolution transmission electron microscopy and diffraction, non-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy.
