چکیده

Visible light emission from Si implanted SiO2 layers as a function of different annealing conditions ~temperature, time and ambient! is studied. It is shown that a 560 nm band, present in as implanted samples, increases its intensity for increasing annealing temperatures and is still observed after annealing at 1000 °C. The emission time is fast ~0.5–2 ns!. A second band centered at 780 nm is detected after annealing at 1000 °C. The intensity of the 780 nm band further increases when hydrogen annealing was performed. The emission time is long ~1ms–0.3 ms!. Based on the annealing behavior and on the emission times, the origin of the two bands is discussed. © 1996 American Institute of Physics. @S0021-8979~96!09910-7#

Optical Simulation of Top-Emission Organic Light Emitting Devices with Passivation Layer

In this paper, we report simulation results of a top-emission organic light-emitting device (TOLED) with a passivation layer composed of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and silicon nitride (Si3N4) to protect organic layers from oxygen and moisture. Usually, the thickness of such a layer is about several micrometers. The electrode material of the device used for simulation is silver (Ag). The anode is th...

Atomic characterization of Si nanoclusters embedded in SiO2 by atom probe tomography

Silicon nanoclusters are of prime interest for new generation of optoelectronic and microelectronics components. Physical properties (light emission, carrier storage...) of systems using such nanoclusters are strongly dependent on nanostructural characteristics. These characteristics (size, composition, distribution, and interface nature) are until now obtained using conventional high-resolutio...

Light Emission and Slot Waveguide Effect in Er-doped SiO2/Si nanocrystalline Multilayer Structures

In this thesis, Er doped SiO2/nc-Si multilayer structure a promising material for on-chip silicon light emission devices, is studied in detail. It is demonstrated, for the first time, that infrared Er emission could be enhanced by an Er doped SiO2/nc-Si multilayer structure. It is also determined that energy transfer from nc-Si to nearby Er ions, is responsible for this emission enhancement. Th...

Concentration and Annealing Effects on Luminescence Properties of Ion-Implanted Silica Layers

The development of optoelectronic or even photonic devices based on silicon technology is still a great challenge. Silicon and its oxide do not possess direct optical transitions and, therefore, are not luminescent. The remaining weak light emission is based on intrinsic and extrinsic defect luminescence. Thus the investigations are extended to ion implantation into silica layers, mainly on ove...
