Abstract

A careful study of the optical constants of a-CSiSn:H films prepared under very similar conditions with varying C or Sn concentration is here presented. Results of an attempt via the use of an effective medium approximation (EMA) theory to identify the contribution of C content to the optical properties are also reported.
