Abstract
An investigation of glow-discharge deposited films of a- Six C1-x: H by optically detected magnetic resonance (O.D.M.R.) has shown for the first time in group-IV materials a half-field (g= 4·017) resonance as well as a signal at g = 2·0030. These quenching signals have been observed for films having low carbon-content (x > 30%) and were associated with all but the highest energy emission. Although Fe impurities cannot be ruled out, the O.D.M.R. results are consistent with a triplet non-radiative path which competes with highly localized radiative recombination.Keywords
