Structural, Optical, and Electrical Properties of Amorphous Silicon Films
Abstract
We report measurements on the x-ray diffraction, electron spin resonance (ESR), optical absorption, and electrical conductivity of amorphous Si films. The x-ray diffraction results show there is no long-range ordering of the atoms in amorphous Si independent of the sample's thermal history, while all of the other properties show strong dependences on annealing. The ESR results indicate a large number of microscopic surfaces distributed throughout the amorphous bulk, and lead us to interpret the optical and electrical properties in terms of "building blocks" with linear dimensions between 10 and 15 \AA{}.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
