Dependence of the physical properties of SiNx : H films deposited by the ECR plasma method on the discharge size

SiNx:H films have been deposited using two different ECR plasma sources attached to a similar deposition chamber, a Compact source and an AX4500 source both from Astex. The sources mainly differ in the discharge volume, 55 cm(3) and 936 cm(3), respectively. Microwave power and N-2/SiH4 gases now rat...
