✦ Synopsis

A computer program for the structural interpretation of the infrared (IR) spectra is developed and tested. The interpretation of the IR spectra is made by using an hybrid system which includes library search and rule-based interpretation methods together.

The computer programs were written in Pascal Codes. The prototype IR library of silicon alloys includes amorphous silicon (a-Si), amorphous silicon dioxide (a-SiO x ), amorphous silicon nitride (a-Si 3 N 4 ) and amorphous silicon carbide (a-SiC) references. The known spectra of these compounds were fed into the system as an unknown samples. The performance of the developed program was evaluated on a test set of 157 spectra and the percentages of successful identification ranged between 78% and 99% for different alloys.

Analysis of IR spectra of thin films such as a-Si:H can yield quantitative compositional information. However, to calculate the integrated absorbances of features in the spectra, multiple internal reflections in the film must be accounted for. In practice, this has been done either by mathematically
