    Abstract:
    Silicon oxynitride films were deposited using a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition process. The bond configurations of the constituent atoms in the deposited film were analyzed using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Analysis of the Si 2p spectra showed the presence of nonstoichiometric silicon oxide and silicon oxynitride. Analysis of the binding energy shifts induced by Si-O and Si-N bond formation indicated an O-Si-N complex was present in the film matrix. Component balance analysis indicated that second-nearest-neighbor bond interactions were not the cause of these energy shifts and supported the presence of an O-Si-N complex. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.
