Electrical characterization of a-C:H as a dielectric material in metal/insulator/metal structures

The fabrication and electrical characterization of Metal- Insulator-Metal (MIM) structures, using a-C:H films as the insulating material, are presented in this work. These PECVD carbon films show a very low dielectric constant and a very high resistivity. The current conduction mechanisms were analy...
