Light Emission Enhancement of Silicon Nanocrystals by Gold Layer
A thin gold metal layer was deposited on the top of silicon oxide films containing embedded Si nanocrystals (Si-nc). The sample was annealed in a gas containing nitrogen, and subsequently characterized by photoluminescence. We obtained 3-fold enhancement of photon emission from the Si-nc embedded in silicon dioxide covered with a Gold layer as compared with an uncovered sample. We attribute thi...
متن کاملSilicon Nanocrystals with pH-Sensitive Tunable Light Emission from Violet to Blue-Green
We fabricated a silicon nanocrystal (NC) suspension with visible, continuous, tunable light emission with pH sensitivity from violet to blue-green. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images and X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern analysis exhibit the highly crystalline nanoparticles of silicon. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra at different pH values,...
متن کاملErbium-doped silicon nanocrystals in silicon/silicon nitride superlattice structures: Light emission and energy transfer
In this paper, we discuss optical emission, energy transfer and electroluminescence from a superlattice structure containing small ( 2nm diameter) amorphous silicon (Si) clusters coupled to erbium (Er) ions. The superlattice structure is fabricated by direct co-sputtering of thin ( 3–5nm) Er-doped siliconrich nitride/Si (Er:SRN/Si) layers subsequently annealed at different temperatures in order...
متن کاملPlasmonic engineering of spontaneous emission from silicon nanocrystals
Silicon nanocrystals offer huge advantages compared to other semi-conductor quantum dots as they are made from an abundant, non-toxic material and are compatible with silicon devices. Besides, among a wealth of extraordinary properties ranging from catalysis to nanomedicine, metal nanoparticles are known to increase the radiative emission rate of semiconductor quantum dots. Here, we use gold na...
متن کاملLight emission in silicon from carbon nanotubes.
The use of optics in microelectronic circuits to overcome the limitation of metallic interconnects is more and more considered as a viable solution. Among future silicon compatible materials, carbon nanotubes are promising candidates thanks to their ability to emit, modulate, and detect light in the wavelength range of silicon transparency. We report the first integration of carbon nanotubes wi...
