Research Abstract |
To reduce the electronic defect density on the amorphous carbon films, the deuterium was used for its isotope effect. Two types of amorphous carbon films were synthesized from normal methane and deuteration methane to compare their electronic defect density. Although these films were deposited same deposition condition and indicated similar structures such as the sp2/sp3 carbon ratio, the electronic defect densities on the obtained films were different. Electronic defect density on the deuterated amorphous carbon film was lower approximately one digit than 10**18 /cm3 and a hydrogenated amorphous carbon film. These results indicated that the deuteration for amorphous carbon film have effects on the electronic defect density reduction on amorphous carbon film.
