Silicon-on-insulator microcavity light emitting diodes with two Si/SiO2 Bragg reflectors

Light emitting pn-diodes were fabricated on a 5.8 μm thick n-type Si device layer of a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer using standard silicon technology and boron implantation. The thickness of the Si device layer was reduced to 1.3 μm, corresponding to a 4λ-cavity for λ=1150 nm light. Electroluminescence spectra of these low Q-factor microcavities are presented. Addition of Si/SiO₂ Bragg reflectors on the top and bottom of the device (3.5 and 5.5 pairs, respectively) is predicted to lead to spectral emission enhancement by ∼270.     

紫外波段SiO2/Si3N4介质膜分布式布拉格反射镜的制备与研究

采用光学传递矩阵方法设计了紫外波段SiO₂/Si₃N₄介质膜分布式布拉格反射镜, 并利用等离子体增强化学气相沉积技术在蓝宝石(0001)衬底上制备了SiO₂/Si₃N₄介质膜分布式布拉格反射镜. 光反射测试表明, 样品反射谱的峰值波长仅与理论模拟谱线相差10 nm, 并随着反射镜周期数的增加而蓝移. 由于SiO₂与Si₃N₄具有相对较大的折射率比, 因而制备的周期数为13的样品反射谱的峰值反射率就已大于99%. 样品反射谱的中心波长为333 nm, 谱峰的半高宽为58 nm. 样品截面的扫描电子显微镜和表面的原子力显微镜测量结果表明, 样品反射谱的中心波长蓝移是由子层的层厚和界面粗糙度的变化引起的. X射线反射谱表明,子层界面过渡层对于反射率的影响较小, 并且SiO₂膜的质量比Si₃N₄差, 也是造成反射率低于理论值的原因之一.     

Electrical and electroluminescence properties of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TPD:Alq3:C60/Al organic light emitting diodes

Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TPD:Alq₃:C₆₀/Al with different C₆₀ concentrations (0-6.0 wt.%) have been fabricated. The physical parameters including electrical and optical properties of the samples have been measured by Luminance-current-voltage (L-I-V) characteristics and optical absorbance. The current-voltage characteristics indicate that field-emission tunneling injection dominates in the diodes at high applied voltages. It is found that with increasing the concentration of C₆₀, the injection barrier for holes slightly reduces and the hole’s mobility increases over two orders of magnitude. Also, electroluminescence enhances with the presence of C₆₀ in the blend; optimum current efficiency occurs at 3 wt% C₆₀. The method provides a simple way of increasing the efficiency of OLEDs.     

A potential green-emitting phosphor Ca8Mg(SiO4)4Cl2:Eu for white light emitting diodes prepared by sol-gel method

A potential green emitting phosphor Ca₈Mg(SiO₄)₄Cl₂:Eu²⁺ was prepared by modified sol-gel method. The factors those affect the photoluminescence intensity including heating temperature, the usage of the chlorine source CaCl₂ and the concentration of dopant Eu²⁺ were also investigated in detail. As comparison, the phosphor prepared by solid-state reaction was also prepared. The phosphors show intense absorption in the range of 375-450 nm, which makes it a potential candidate of green emitting phosphor used for near-UV or blue light excited white LEDs.     

Molecular dynamics simulations of CFx (x = 2, 3) molecules at Si3N4 and SiO2 surfaces

Molecular dynamics simulations of the interaction between CF_x (x = 2, 3) molecules and crystalline as well as amorphous Si₃N₄ and SiO₂ surfaces using a density-functional based method are reported. The binding energies of various configurations at the crystalline surfaces were calculated. The effect of hydrogen substitution was studied.
