“…The main features of silicon nitride as a pH-sensitive material are related to the presence of hydrogen in the film, its content depending on deposition conditions and resulting in the variation of pH sensitivity [69,70,71]. It is known that silicon nitride contains a certain amount of hydrogen in its bulk in the form of Si-H and Si-NH groups [72,73]. Ammonia and silane, which are used as reagents during silicon nitride deposition, are the sources of hydrogen incorporated in the film.…”

“…On the other hand Neugebauer [6] and Kasprzak [7] have concluded on the base of their measurements, that the memory window decay rate of MNOS memory devices is connected with the depth distribution of charges in the Si3N4 films. Bélyi et al [1] have demonstrated the influence of the composition of the ambient gas on decomposition of N-H groups during annealing at 1000 °C.…”
