AbstractIn order to fill the gap of little knowledge about their details, the density of states distributions (DOS) in the upper half of the band gap were determined for a series of wellcharacterised amorphous hydrogenated silicon carbide samples with Tauc gaps between 1.78 and 1.94 eV. A DOS spectroscopic technique, based on the Fourier transform of time-sampled transient photocurrents, allowed the DOS determination on an absolute scale for a wide energy range. The DOS increases in the band tail region with carbon content. It exhibits a minimum at about 0.5 eV which is followed by a defect structure at deeper energies, the density of which also increases with C-content. We find a decreasing time-dependent drift mobility for larger C-content consistent with the lower transit time-determined drift mobility in time-of-flight.

Spectral characteristics of the coefficient of defect absorption in amorphous hydrogenated silicon have been studied. The characteristics are determined, by analyzing the electron transitions occurring with the participation of the energy states of dangling bonds. It is shown that the principal role in the formation of the defect absorption coefficient value is played by the electron transitions between defect and non-localized states. It is also shown that the spectral characteristics are mainly determined by the distribution function of the electron density of states in the valence or conduction band. It is found that the maxima in the spectrum of the defect absorption coefficient are observed only if there are pronounced maxima in the density of states at the edges of allowed bands.
