This paper presents the results of a research of the optical properties of SiN x layers with various compositions obtained by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). The growth rate and optical properties of SiN x obtained using SiH 4 and N 2 at low temperature were determined. A strong dependence of the optical properties of SiN x on concentration of silane in the gas mixture during deposition was demonstrated. Antireflection coatings for GaP/Si solar cells were fabricated based on developed SiN x layer.
