Abstract: | We observe a new peak in the photoluminescence spectrum of intrinsic Si which we attribute to the recombination of an electron-hole pair in a biexciton leaving behind a free exciton. A calculation of the emission line shape based on a simple model is found to be in good agreement with experiment. From this theoretical fit we deduce a binding energy of 1.2 meV and a ‘radius’ of 100 Å for the biexciton. |
