Abstract :
SiCxNy nanolayers were synthesized by a remote plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (RPECVD) method and chemically characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure investigations in total reflection X-ray fluorescence geometry (TXRF-NEXAFS). The results are compared with those obtained for standard samples SiC and Si3N4 (and with spectra from the literature). As a first result, two or more compounds containing Si–N bonds (not Si3N4), one compound with a Si–C bond (not SiC), and graphitic carbon were identified.
