Abstract EN
The interest in developing optoelectronic devices integrated in the same silicon chip has motivated the study of Silicon nanocrystals (Si-ncs) embedded in SiOx (nonstoichiometric silicon oxides) films.
In this work, Si-ncs in SiOx films were obtained by Hot Wire Chemical Vapor Deposition (HWCVD) at 800, 900, and 1000°C.
The vibration modes of SiOx films were determined by FTIR measurements.
Additionally, FTIR and EDAX were related to get the proper composition of the films.
Micro-Raman studies in the microstructure of SiOx films reveal a transition from amorphous-to-nanocrystalline phase when the growth temperature increases; thus, Si-ncs are detected.
Photoluminescence (PL) measurement shows a broad emission from 400 to 1100 nm.
This emission was related with both Si-ncs and interfacial defects present in SiOx films.
The existence of Si-ncs between 3 and 6 nm was confirmed by HRTEM.
