Si离子注入对分子束外延Si1-xGex/Si量子阱发光特性的影响

对分子束外延生长带边激子发光的Si_1-xGe_x/Si量子阱结构，通过Si离子自注入和不同温度退火，观测到深能级发光带和带边激子发光的转变.Si离子注入量子阱中并在600℃的低温退火，形成链状或小板式的团簇缺陷，它导致深能级发光带的形成，在850℃的高温退火后重新观测到带边激子发光.这种团簇缺陷的热离化能约为0.1eV，比Si中空穴或填隙原子缺陷的热激活能(约0.05eV)高.这表明早期文献中报道的深能级发光带是由类似的团簇缺陷产生的. 关键词：

Si中Au受主能级的流体静压力移动

用恒温的瞬态电容法测量了各向同性流体静压力P下,Si中Au受主能级E_T的压力系数。在0—8kbar压力范围内,(?(E_c-E_T))/(?P)=-1.9meV/kbar。该能级对电子俘获截面在实验误差范围内与压力无关。以上数据与文献[13]报道的Si中Au受主深能级在单轴应力下的压力系数作了比较。结果说明该深能级缺陷势不具有T_d对称性,因此Si中Au受主能级看来并不来源于简单的Si中Au替位或间隙组态。 关键词：

电子对於原子半导体晶格的形变作用

乾根—别卡曾经分析过原子晶体中的极化子问题。文中指出,其中弹性形变的考虑是不正确的,而且“绝热型”的极化子,在例如Ge,Si等原子晶体中存在的可能性是十分微小的。以微扰论为基础的计算证明,电子引起的局部体积变化发生在半径≈λ的范围内,λ是以声速运动的电子的德布罗意波长。局部体变的数值等於E/(α+4/3μ)(E为形变势常数,α和μ分别为体变和切变模量)。局部体变还在样品中引起一个均匀的形变,两者合起来使样品体积改变E/α。具体的分析证明,在类氢的杂质能级中的电子使样品体积产生同样的体积变化。这个效应是相当大的;例如,在Ge和Si这样的晶体中,效应甚至可以舆实验所观测到Ⅲ,Ⅴ族杂质原子的体积效应相比拟。导带中低速电子能量的改变约等於(电子质量/原胞质量)(E/(kΘ_D))E;在Ge晶体中,如果E=1—10电子伏,能量改变是0.001—0.1电子伏。相应的有效质量改变是1/1000—1/10电子质量。在类氢杂质能级中,电子能量改变远比上值为小;理论上电子—晶格互作用有着可能致使类氢能级自发电离。

Near-IR photoluminescence from Si/Ge nanowire-grown silicon wafers: effect of HF treatment

We present the room-temperature near-infrared (NIR) photoluminescence (PL) properties of Si/Ge nanowire (NW)-grown silicon wafers which were treated by vapor of HF:HNO₃ chemical mixture. This treatment activates or enhances the PL intensity in the NIR region ranging from 1000 nm to 1800 nm. The PL consists of a silicon band-edge emission and a broad composite band which is centered at around 1400–1600 nm. The treatment modifies the wafer surface particularly at defect sites especially pits around NWs and NW surfaces by etching and oxidation of Si and Ge. This process can induce spatial confinement of carriers where band-to-band (BB) emission is the dominant property in Si-capped strained Si/Ge NW-grown wafers. Strong signals were observed at sub-band-gap energies in Ge-capped Si/Ge NW-grown wafers. It was found that NIR PL is a competitive property between the Si BB transition and deep-level emission, which is mainly attributable to Si-related defects, Ge dots and strained Ge layers. The enhancement in BB and deep-level PL is discussed in terms of strain, oxygen-related defects, dot formation and carrier-confinement effects. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of this method in enhancing and tuning NIR PL properties for possible applications.

Electronic structure of strained Sin/Gen(001) superlattices

Using the empirical tight binding method we have investigated the electronic properties of the Si_n/Ge_n(001) strained superlattices as a function of the superlattice periodicity and the band misfit. For n ≥ 4 we have found that first and second conduction band states are localized in Si. The hole states localized in Ge appear for n ≥ 4. The difference between the direct and indirect band gaps is reduced from 2.01 eV for bulk Si to 0.01 eV for n=6 which can be considered to be quasi-direct. For the cases n=6 and n=8, the band gap might become direct for large values of band misfit.     

A k·p analytical model for valence band of biaxial strained Ge on（001） Si_1-xGe_x

In this paper,the dispersion relationship is derived by using the k·p method with the help of the perturbation theory,and we obtain the analytical expression in connection with the deformation potential.The calculation of the valence band of the biaxial strained Ge/(001)Si1-xGex is then performed.The results show that the first valence band edge moves up as Ge fraction x decreases,while the second valence band edge moves down.The band structures in the strained Ge/(001)Si 0.4 Ge 0.6 exhibit significant changes with x decreasing in the relaxed Ge along the [0,0,k] and the [k,0,0] directions.Furthermore,we employ a pseudo-potential total energy package(CASTEP) approach to calculate the band structure with the Ge fraction ranging from x = 0.6 to 1.Our analytical results of the splitting energy accord with the CASTEP-extracted results.The quantitative results obtained in this work can provide some theoretical references to the understanding of the strained Ge materials and the conduction channel design related to stress and orientation in the strained Ge pMOSFET.

Electronic structure of SixGe1−x semiconductor solid solutions

The electronic structure of Si_xGe_1?x solid solutions is studied by means of a semi-ab initio method without involving the virtual crystal approximation. The calculations are performed on large cubic cells of the diamond lattice which contain a total of 64 Si and Ge atoms homogeneously distributed in different compositional ratios. The basis functions and the potentials used in the calculation give good band structures of elemental Si and Ge respectively. The calculated variation of band gap with x is in agreement with optical experiment: the two linear curves of gap vs concentration have different slopes at high and low x values with a crossing-over at about x=0.28. The band gaps are direct for xε (0, 0.28) and indirect for x ≥ 0.28. The density of states (DOS) of the solid solution can be very well approximated by the weighted average of the bulk Si and Ge DOS. There is a very slight charge transfer of about 0.05 electron per atom from Si to Ge.

Binding of electron states in multilayer strained Ge/Si heterostructures with type-II quantum dots

Mechanical strains in a multilayer Ge/Si(001) heterostructure with vertically aligned Ge nanoclusters (quantum dots) are calculated using an interatomic potential based on the Keating valence-force-field model. It is found that the nonuniform spatial elastic strain distribution in this medium gives rise to a three-dimensional potential well for electrons in the strained Si layers near Ge nanoclusters. The depth of the potential well reaches 100 meV, and its spatial dimensions are determined by the diameter of the Ge nanoclusters. For a structure consisting of four Ge islands 23 nm in diameter arranged one above another, the electron binding energies in this well and the spatial electron density distribution are determined. The ground state has an s-like symmetry and is characterized by an electron binding energy of ～95 and ～60 meV for the elemental composition of Ge in the nanoclusters c = 1 and c = 0.7, respectively. The existence of bound electron states in the conduction band of strained Si must lead to a relaxation of the selection rules that determine the low efficiency of the radiative recombination in indirect-gap semiconductors. This explains the high value of the oscillator strength observed for the interband transitions in multilayer Ge/Si(001) structures with vertical correlation of the arrangement of Ge nanoclusters.
