Optimizing Silicon Oxide Embedded Silicon Nanocrystal Inter-particle Distances
We demonstrate an analytical method to optimize the stoichiometry and thickness of multilayer silicon oxide films in order to achieve the highest density of non-touching and closely spaced silicon nanocrystals after annealing. The probability of a nanocrystal nearest-neighbor distance within a limited range is calculated using the stoichiometry of the as-deposited film and the crystallinity of ...
متن کاملSilicon optical nanocrystal memory
We describe the operation of a silicon optical nanocrystal memory device. The programmed logic state of the device is read optically by the detection of high or low photoluminescence intensity. The suppression of excitonic photoluminescence is attributed to the onset of fast nonradiative Auger recombination in the presence of an excess charge carrier. The device can be programmed and erased ele...
متن کاملModeling miniband for realistic silicon nanocrystal array
Within the envelop-function framework, we developed the finite element method to calculate theminibands in the realist Silicon nanocrystal array. This method clearly reveals the miniband formation and accurately calculates the E–K dispersion relationship. In the simple 1D array, the deduced miniband structure matches well with the analytic Kronig–Penney method. More importantly, it can better s...

متن کاملEnergy Transfer from Silicon Nanocrystals to Er Ions Embedded in Silicon Oxide Matrix
Silicon (Si) based light emitting devices have drawn much attention for the integration of electronic and photonics. Si nanostructures (amorphous clusters or crystals) have been recognized as good candidates for effective light emitting devices (Bulutay, 2007; Seino et al., 2009; Takagahara & Takeda, 2007; Wolkin et al., 1999). However, photons emitted by Si nanostructures can be reabsorbed by ...
