Journal ArticleDOI
Light-emitting devices in industrial CMOS technology
TL;DR: In this paper, two unmodified industrial CMOS processes have been used for the integration of highly interdigitated pn structures, and under forward bias these pn junctions emit narrow-band infrared light at 1160 nm with an electrical-to-optical power conversion efficiency of typically 10 −4.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visible light emission from Si materials
TL;DR: The photoluminescence of electrochemically etched silicon under excitation in the wavelength range from 325 to 514 nm is described by a single energy gap (of order of 1.9 eV) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light emission from a silicon quantum well
TL;DR: In this paper, the photoluminescence properties of single quantum well structures, consisting of an either amorphous or crystalline Si layer of 3 nm thickness, embedded between silicon-nitride layers, are compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical studies on silicon "quantum wires"
TL;DR: In this paper, a model of spherical crystalline silicon particles (of up to 706 silicon atoms), saturated at their surface with hydrogen, has been studied by density functional theory, which shows that this nanocrystalline silicon has a direct gap which is substantially larger than the bulk (indirect) gap and is consistent with experimental observation.
