(Invited) Growing Si Nanocrystals within a-Si Nanoclusters Embedded in a-SiO2: Evolution of Photoluminescence

Abstract

We combine X-ray absorption, electron spin resonance and Raman spectroscopies, X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence (PL) techniques to determine the structure and luminescence mechanisms in Si nanoclusters (Si-ncls) embedded within Si oxides at various intermediate formation stages. The Si-ncls/oxide systems are fabricated by thermally annealing plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposited Si-rich Si-oxide films. The structural and chemical …
