Abstract

Electronic properties of C-rich a-Si1 -xCx:H alloys are investigated through the characterization of MIM-type structures, by means of current-voltage measurements carried out at different temperatures. These measurements provide some new insight in both the dielectric behavior of the material and the physics of the metal/a-Si1-xCx:H junction.
