Abstract :
We have investigated the effects of implantation and thermal annealing upon the photoluminescence observed in a-Si3N4 films prepared by the low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) method, in order to explore the correlation between the PL and the defects induced by ion-implantation and thermal annealing
