Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we fabricated Si-QDs with Ge core (pseudo-super atom structure) with an areal density as high as ~1011 cm-2, and studied the carrier recombination dynamics in the Si-Ge pseudo-super atom structures. Based on the obtained results, we designed and fabricated a light emitting device containing Si-QDs with Ge core embedded in a SiO2 layer, and their luminescence characteristics were evaluated at room temperature. As a result, we found that the hole confinement in the Ge core plays an important role on radiative recombination in the Si-QDs with Ge core. In addition, we also found that the delta-doping of P or B atoms into Si-shell or Ge-core has potential to increase carrier injection efficiency. The results obtained in this research will lead to the development of current-injection type Si-based laser very compatible with Si-ULSI process that have been thought to have extreme difficulty in realizing silicon photonics.
