ABSTRACTImplantation of Si+ ions into thermal oxides grown on silicon has been used to synthesise a two phase structure consisting of Si nanocrystals in a SiO2 matrix. Various processing conditions have been used in order to modify the size and population distributions of the Si inclusions. Photoluminescence spectra have been recorded from samples annealed in nitrogen, forming gas and oxygen. Both red and blue shifts of the luminescence peaks have been observed. It is concluded that the photoluminescence is a consequence of the effects of quantum confinement but is also dependent on the presence of irradiation-induced defects or Si/SiO2 interface states.

For this experiment, the main purpose of this experiment is to determine the electroluminescence of PSiNs samples with optimum electrolyte volume ratio of photo-electrochemical anodisation. PSiNs samples were prepared by photo-electrochemical anodisation by using p-type silicon substrate. For the formation of PSiNs on the silicon surface, a fixed current density (J=20 mA/cm2) and 30 minutes etching time were applied for the various electrolyte volume ratio. Volume ratio of hydrofluoric acid 48% (HF48%) and absolute ethanol (C2H5OH), HF48%:C2H5OH was used for sample A (3:1), sample B (2:1), sample C (1:1), sample D (1:2) and sample E (1:3). The light emission can be observed at visible range. The effective electroluminescence was observed for sample C. Porous silicon nanostructures light–emitting diode (PSiNs-LED) has high-potential device for future flat screen display and can be high in demand.
