Abstract

We investigate leakage currents in a-SiOC:H thin films with electrically detected magnetic resonance (EDMR) and new zero field magnetoresistance measurements. We substantially change leakage currents by subjecting the dielectrics to 60Co gamma irradiation. Our results strongly suggest the potential of a very simple measurement, near zero field magnetoresistance, as a reliability physics tool in the investigation of transport mechanisms in these materials.
