AbstractGermanium (Ge) films were deposited on substrates whose temperature was kept at room (Ge-RT) or liquid nitrogen temperature (Ge-LNT) by the cluster-beam evaporation technique. The Raman spectra of both films with a double peak suggest that the crystal structure is not the ordinary diamond but the tetragonal one. The critical temperature for the phase transformation from the tetragonal into the diamond structure is found much higher than that for the Ge nanostructures deposited by the gas-evaporation technique. The Ge-LNT sample exhibits photooxidation and photoluminescence (PL) when it is exposed to the UV light. Their PL and optical absorption characteristics are strongly influenced by a combination of the photo-oxidation and thermal annealing treatments.

ABSTRACTThe ultrafine particles with diameters in the order of 10 nm were deposited onto Si and SiO2 substrates by evaporation of Ge in a pure hydrogen atmosphere. Although the as-deposited Ge ultrafine particles do not show any detectable luminescence, they emit blue light after being exposed to the UV light for a long time. The blue light is strong enough to be seen with the naked eye even under a room light. The photooxidation, unique to the Ge ultrafine particles, has been identified as a major factor contributing to the blue light emission.
