Abstract:

Nanotechnology is playing a greater role in biomedical engineering. Microphotonic technology is on another side, having faster growth with more requirements. The nanocrystals are a part of nanotechnology which uses silicon for manufacturing. These silicon nanocrystals have the optical property mostly used in microphotonic devices. Silicon nanocrystals are of biocompatibility with less toxicity. Therefore, the advancement in the silicon nanocrystal helps develop more microphotonic devices for biological purposes. One critical factor of silicon nanocrystal is the surface defects or surface imper

Abstract:

Recent results on the photoluminescence properties of silicon nanocrystals embedded in silicon oxide are reviewed and discussed. The attention is focused on Si nanocrystals produced by high-temperature annealing of silicon rich oxide layers deposited by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The influence of deposition parameters and layer thickness is analyzed in detail. The nanocrystal size can be roughly controlled by means of Si content and annealing temperature and time. Unfortunately, a technique for independently fine tuning the emission efficiency and the size is still lacking; thu

The results of structural and optical investigation of crystalline Si with embedded InSb nanocrystals are reported. These nanocrystals were synthesized in silicon matrix by means of high-fluence “hot” implantation of Sb and In ions followed by thermal treatment. TEM gives an evidence of nanocrystal formation in implanted and annealed samples as well as an existence of microtwins and dislocation-type defects and substantial residual mechanical strains. We have identified nanocrystals as InSb from RS data. Mechanical strains in “silicon – InSb nanocrystals” system have been evaluated, too.

After generating an amorphous silicon-rich-oxide, its evolution towards an embedded nanocrystal is driven by the oxygen diffusion process implemented in the form of a Metropolis algorithm based on the suboxide penalty energies.

However, most reports on nanocrystal arrays have focused on two dimensional (2D) flat substrates, and the production of wafer-scale monolayer arrays is still challenging.

Structures with arrays of planar and tilted quasi-one-dimensional GaAs nanocrystals have been grown on GaAs(001) substrates. An epitaxial silicon layer oxidized in air was used as a passivation coating. The amount of silicon deposited varied from structure to structure and was equivalent to 1, 2, 4, and 6 atomic layers. It has been found that in the case of a passivation layer based on silicon with a thickness of 1 atomic layer, an array of planar nanocrystals is formed, and in other cases, inclined quasi-one-dimensional nanocrystals. Nanocrystals are surrounded by crystallites, the shape, siz

Abstract:

Ab initio restricted Hartree-Fock method within the framework of large unit cell formalism is used to simulate silicon nanocrystals between 216 and 1000 atoms (1.6–2.65 nm in diameter) that include Bravais and primitive cell multiples. The investigated properties include core and oxidized surface properties. Results revealed that electronic properties converge to some limit as the size of the nanocrystal increases. Increasing the size of the core of a nanocrystal resulted in an increase of the energy gap, valence band width, and cohesive energy. The lattice constant of the core and oxidized su

Abstract:

Silicon nanocrystals in a range from 2 nm to 5 nm were prepared from Zintl salt, soldium silicide (NaSi) by sonochemical method. This synthesis permits that the reaction be completed in only a few hours and the easy alkyl-modification of nanocrystals surface at room temperature and ambient pressure. The average size of nanocrystals measured by the dynamic light scattering analysis was 2.7 nm. The high-resolution transmission electron micrograph confirmed the material identity of nanocrystals as crystalline silicon. FT-IR spectra are consistent with the surface states of nanocrystals that are c

Abstract:

The crystallization of silumins has been shown to be a nanostructured process. Liquid silumin consists of elementary nanocrystals of aluminum and silicon, free atoms of aluminum and silicon, aluminum-silicon complexes. Primary microcrystals are formed from them. Eutectic microcrystals are formed from elementary nanocrystals of silicon and aluminum, aluminumsilicon complexes.

Abstract:

In this work, monocrystalline films of silicon carbide were synthesized on the surface of a Si(100) silicon wafer using the method of coordinated substitution of atoms. The films were synthesized at temperatures of 1200 °C and 1300 °C for 20 minutes in a CO gas flow at a pressure of 0.8 Pa. The effect of 1200–1300 °C temperatures on the formation of single- and polycrystalline layers, as well as nanostructured SiC phases in the near-surface region of silicon by the method of atom substitution, is analyzed. The formation of a high-quality crystalline silicon carbide film and the influence of sy

Abstract:

Silicon the material per excellence for electronics is not used for sourcing light due to the lack of efficient light emitters and lasers. In this review, after having introduced the basics on lasing, I will discuss the physical reasons why silicon is not a laser material and the approaches to make it lasing. I will start with bulk silicon, then I will discuss silicon nanocrystals and Er3+ coupled silicon nanocrystals where significant advances have been done in the past and can be expected in the near future. I will conclude with an optimistic note on silicon lasing.

Abstract:

We study the influence of gold nanoantennas on the photoluminescence signal of silicon nanocrystals. Unlike bulk silicon, which only exhibits low photoluminescence at room temperature due to its indirect band gap, silicon nanocrystals have the advantage of producing strong and size-dependent photoluminescence. Here, we place gold nanoantennas on a layered system in which silicon nanocrystals are integrated. The nanoantennas are embedded in the layered system by subsequent overgrowth. We find that the photoluminescence signal can be manipulated ranging from attenuation to enhancement. Moreover,

Abstract:

In this paper we present experimental evidence for single-electron phenomena in solid-state memories based on silicon nanocrystals as storage elements. The stepwise evolution of the channel current of a written memory cell biased in the subthreshold regime is monitored by means of a purposely designed low noise acquisition system with a bandwidth of 1 kHz. Each channel current step-up is ascribed to a single-electron emission from the silicon nanocrystal to the silicon substrate and each current step-down is ascribed to a single-electron capture from the silicon substrate into the silicon nano
