Long Lifetime State of Shallow Donor Centres for Silicon Based THz Sources

Impurity centres in high purity silicon with ionization energies 38.32 and 40.09meV are observed by photothermal ionization spectroscopy measurements. Their typical shallow donor characteristics are approved by good agreement with theoretic evaluation under varying magnetic fields. The 2p0 state lifetime of one donor centres are more than 3 times longer than that of phosphorus in the same silicon sample. Compared to phosphorus which has been already successfully exploited to produce silicon-based THz radiations, this shallow donor centre has a pronounced enhancement on lifetime and quality factor of population inversion level. Hence, silicon with this donor centre would be a potential excellent candidate to develop improved silicon-based THz sources.

Group-IV nanocluster formation by ion-beam synthesis

A short review of our investigations devoted to the use of ion-beam-synthesized nanoclusters for silicon-based light emission and nonvolatile memory effects is presented. Blue-violet light emission is demonstrated based on Ge-implanted silicon dioxide layers thermally grown on silicon substrates. This version of silicon-based light emission relies on Ge-related defects in the amorphous ≡Si–O–Si≡ network. The photoluminescence and electroluminescence are excited by a singlet S₀–S₁ transition of a neutral oxygen vacancy and by electron injection from the silicon substrate into the silicon dioxide layer, respectively. Whereas the photoluminescence excitation is a well-known mechanism, for the case of electroluminescence an interpretation was performed for the first time in the course of our studies. It was found that the most probable way to excite luminescence centers is the impact excitation by hot electrons. Whereas the injection is explained by trap-assisted tunneling of electrons from the substrate into the oxide, the electrons will be transported via traps or in the SiO₂ conduction band. The application of the silicon-based light-emitting devices for an integrated optocoupler arrangement is described. Another application of nanoclusters is based on the investigation of thin Si-implanted silicon dioxide layers for nonvolatile memory devices. First promising results demonstrate that the observed programming window can reach several volts and the devices exhibit excellent retention behavior. A 256 K-nv-SRAM is demonstrated showing a programming window of >1 V for write pulses of 12 V/8 ms.

Free-carrier absorption modulation in silicon nanocrystal slot waveguides

Free-carrier absorption (FCA) has proven to be an important obstacle in the development of a silicon-based laser; however, FCA may serve as a potential advantage in active silicon-based switches or modulators. In this work, we present FCA modulation in slot waveguides with silicon nanocrystals (Si-ncs) embedded in SiO(2) as the low-index slot material. Slot waveguides were fabricated with and without Si-ncs, and the presence of Si-ncs was shown to increase the pump-induced FCA loss in the waveguides by a factor of 4.5. We modeled the Si-nc material using a four-level rate equation analysis to estimate the excited population of Si-ncs, allowing us to extract a value of 2.6 × 10(-17) cm(2) for the FCA cross section of the Si-nc material.     

Raman scattering from acoustic modes in Si/Ge superlattice waveguides

This paper discusses the design of acoustic vibrational modes in Si/Ge planar optical waveguides and its application in creating silicon-based Raman devices with a flexible spectrum. It addresses the deficiencies of the recently demonstrated Raman-based silicon lasers and amplifiers as they relate to spectral and low efficiency limitations of bulk silicon. The treatment is for in-plane scattering in a forward scattering configuration. In addition to calculating the spectrum and the efficiency for Raman active modes, it is shown that the negligible wave-vector of the phonons involved in this type of scattering allows for the use of the bandgap “pinching” effect to arrive at specific layer thicknesses for Si and Ge that optimize the scattering efficiency.     

Silicon-based two-dimensional photonic crystal waveguides

A review of the properties of silicon-based two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals is given, essentially infinite 2D photonic crystals made from macroporous silicon and photonic crystal slabs based on silicon-on-insulator basis. We discuss the bulk photonic crystal properties with particular attention to the light cone and its impact on the band structure. The application for wave guiding is discussed for both material systems, and compared to classical waveguides based on index-guiding. Losses of resonant waveguide modes above the light line are discussed in detail.
