氧、硼、磷掺杂对氢化非晶硅中铒1.54μm发光的作用

利用等离子体增强化学气相淀积(PECVD)技术生长氧、硼、磷掺杂的氢化非晶硅薄膜.在室温下注入铒离子后研究三种掺杂元素对铒离子发光的作用.室温下观察到很强的光致发光现象.氧的引入并且和铒离子形成发光中心,提高了铒离子的发光强度.退火实验表明氧、硼、磷的掺杂补偿了材料中的缺陷,提高了氢的逃逸温度,改善材料的热稳定性,使材料的退火温度因掺杂元素的加入而提高,铒的发光得到增强.讨论了铒离子的发光机制.     

PASSIVATION OF THE InP(100) SURFACE USING (NH4)2Sx

InP(100) surface treated with (NH₄)₂S_x has been investigated by using photolumines-cence(PL), Auger electron spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, It is found that PL intensity increased by a factor of 3.3 after (NH₄)₂S_x passivation and the sulfur remained on the surface only bonded to indium, not to phosphorus. This suggests that the sulfur atoms replace the phosphorus atoms on the surface and occupy the phosphorus vacancies.
