Search for anisotropic electrical properties in amorphous germanium.

Measurement of low-field and high-field resistivity in amorphous Ge in both the planar and transverse directions on the same samples, whose thickness ranged from 0.4 to 4 microns. No anisotropy was found, suggesting that the voids recently described by Galeener (1971) may not play a significant role in these transport processes.

Electron-beam-deposited thin polymer films - Electrical properties vs bombarding current.

Polymer films about 150 A thick, deposited on glass substrates by electron bombardment of tetramethyltetraphenyltrisiloxane, were studied, after being sandwiched between evaporated aluminum electrodes, the top one semitransparent. The capacitance, conductance, and photoconductance of the sandwiches were measured at room temperature as a function of the electron bombarding current which formed the polymer. The polymer thickness was obtained independently from Christy's (1960) empirical formula for the rate of formation. The obtained results indicate that, with increasing bombarding current, the polymer undergoes an increase in both crosslinking bonds and dangling bonds. Exposure to air drastically reduces the density of dangling bonds, but does not affect the crosslinking.

A study of the electrical properties of p-n junctions formed by ion-implantation into gallium arsenide

In the process of ion implantation, ion beams bombard the surface and create undesirable surface effects. The surface effects were investigated, and surface leakage currents were shown to be reduced by surface treatment. I-V characteristics and C-V measurements were obtained for the Zn-GaAs and Zn-(In,Ga)As junction is considered as a p-i-n heterojunction, without generation-recombination current. The Zn-GaAs junction is considered as a p-n homojunction with appreciable generation-recombination currents.

Electrical properties of lunar soil dependence on frequency, temperature and moisture.

It was found that the dielectric constant and loss tangent of lunar soil samples in the range from 100 Hz to 1 MHz are not strongly dependent on frequency provided care is taken to avoid exposure of the sample to atmospheric air containing moisture. The loss tangent value obtained is lower by nearly a factor 10 than any previously reported value. The measurement data imply that the surface layers of the moon are probably extremely transparent to radiowaves.

Grain size analysis and high frequency electrical properties of Apollo 15 and 16 samples

The particle size distribution of eleven surface fines samples collected by Apollo 15 and 16 was determined by the method of measuring the sedimentation rate in a column of water. The fact that the grain size distribution in the core samples shows significant differences within a few centimeters variation of depth is important for the understanding of the surface transportation processes which are responsible for the deposition of thin layers of different physical and/or chemical origin. The variation with density of the absorption length is plotted, and results would indicate that for the case of meter wavelength radar waves, reflections from depths of more than 100 meters generally contribute significantly to the radar echoes obtained.

Surface electrical properties experiment, Part 3

A complete unified discussion of the electromagnetic response of a plane stratified structure is reported. A detailed and comprehensive analysis of the theoretical parts of the electromagnetic is given. The numerical problem of computing numbers of the electromagnetic field strengths is discussed. It is shown that the analysis of the conductive media is not very far removed from the theoretical analysis and the numerical difficulties are not as accute as for the low-loss problem. For Vol. 1, see N75-15570; for Vol. 2 see N75-15571.
