Room-temperature synthesis of earth-abundant semiconductor ZnSiN on amorphous carbon.

This manuscript reports room-temperature one-step synthesis of earth-abundant semiconductor ZnSiN on amorphous carbon substrates using radio frequency reactive magnetron co-sputtering. Transmission Electron Microscopy and Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry analysis demonstrated that the synthesis has occurred as ZnSiN nanocrystals in the orthorhombic phase, uniformly distributed on amorphous carbon. The technique of large-area deposition on an amorphous substrate can be interesting for flexible electronics technologies.
