Optical investigation of Si nano-crystals in amorphous silicon matrix
Paper presents the comparative investigation of photoluminescence and Raman scattering spectra of pure amorphous silicon films and amorphous silicon films with different size Si nanocrystallites. Several PL bands in the IR spectral range with maxima at 0.90, 0.98, 1.14 and 1.36 eV have been revealed in studied samples. The 0.90–0.98 eV PL bands are attributed to the band tail luminescence in Si...
متن کاملIn vivo dose verification using using an amorphous silicon flat panel-type imager (a-Si EPIDs)
Introduction: Electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) could be used to dose verification of radiotherapy treatment plans. In vivo dose verification is performed to reduce differences found between dose delivered to the patient and the prescribed dose. The aim of this study was to perform a fast and efficient technique for the verification of delivered dose to the patient usin...
متن کاملThe structure and properties of vacancies in Si nano - crystals calculated by real space pseudopotential methods
The structure and properties of vacancies in a 2 nm Si nano-crystal are studied using a real space density functional theory/pseudopotential method. It is observed that a vacancy’s electronic properties and energy of formation are directly related to the local symmetry of the vacancy site. The formation energy for vacancies and Frenkel pair are calculated. It is found that both defects have low...
متن کاملVisibility of Si nanoparticles embedded in an amorphous SiO2 matrix.
The visibility of a Si crystalline nanoparticle of diameter 2 nm embedded in an amorphous SiO(2) layer is evaluated quantitatively by multislice calculation. The visibility depends on the crystal orientation of the Si nanoparticle, the thickness of the amorphous SiO(2) layer and the defocus. Scherzer defocus always gives the highest visibility at any crystal orientation. The visibility is highe...
متن کاملField emission enhancement of Au-Si nano-particle-decorated silicon nanowires
Au-Si nano-particle-decorated silicon nanowire arrays have been fabricated by Au film deposition on silicon nanowire array substrates and then post-thermal annealing under hydrogen atmosphere. Field emission measurements illustrated that the turn-on fields of the non-annealed Au-coated SiNWs were 6.02 to 7.51 V/μm, higher than that of the as-grown silicon nanowires, which is about 5.01 V/μm. Me...
