Annotation
The effect of the adsorption of water vapors on the current-voltage characteristics and the frequency dispersion of the capacitance of an a-Si:H Schottky barrier has been studied. It is suggested that the orientational polarizability of water molecules decreases the height of the barrier and, besides, surface hydration affects the distribution of the density of localized electron states due to the saturation of broken silicon bonds with hydroxyl groups.
