Optical and structural investigations of GeSiO2 systems

Abstract

This paper presents the results of a photoluminescence investigation of silicon oxide films enriched by Ge. Photoluminescence peculiarities are analyzed both for "as prepared" silicon oxide films enriched by Ge (without Ge-nanocrystalls) and for films with Ge-nc, created during film annealing in inert atmosphere at 800°C. Raman scattering spectra and high-resolution transmission electronic microscopy are used for the confirmation the Ge-nc plane existing in the structures, and for an estimation of their sizes. The mechanism of photoluminescence is discussed as well.
