Abstract
The main processes which occur during the gold fast diffusion into amorphous GeTe4 films are followed by RBS measurements, for annealings carried out at temperatures below Tg (140°C). From the profiles obtained, strikingly similar to grain-boundary (G.B.) profiles, we extract the diffusion coefficients for low-concentration kinetics using specific G.B. theories. Then we present a model based on recent trends in amorphous structures. This model is also consistent with experimental data obtained from complementary characterizations as electron microscopy X-ray and transport properties.
