Decoupling between propagating acoustic waves and two-level systems in hydrogenated amorphous silicon

M. Molina-Ruiz, H. C. Jacks, D. R. Queen +3

Specific heat measurements of hydrogenated amorphous silicon prepared by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition show a large density of two-level systems at low temperature. Annealing…

Origin of Mechanical and Dielectric Losses from Two-Level Systems in Amorphous Silicon

M. Molina-Ruiz, Y. J. Rosen, H. C. Jacks +5

Amorphous silicon contains tunneling two-level systems, which are the dominant energy loss mechanisms for amorphous solids at low temperatures. These two-level systems affect both…
