Abstract
The introduction of hydrogen in the plasma phase strongly affected the structural, chemical and physical properties of the films. In particular a pronounced change in the film electrical behavior was observed which become conductive when H is added in the gas mixture ([H2]Â >Â 6%). The film transparency was on the other hand maintained. By combining XPS, ATR-FTIR and OES data we could correlate the established conductivity and its variations with intentional hydrogen incorporation in the crystal structure in the form of hydroxide species.
