Research Abstract |
The physical properties induced in quantum-sized silicon have been studied, including their applications. Major results are summarized as follows. (1) Luminescence: The blue emission was enhanced by high quality oxidation, and then bluephosphorescence was generated. As a related photonic effect, avalanche photoconduction was observed. (2) Ballistic electron emission: The usefulness has been confirmed in various media: parallel EBlithography and highly sensitive image-pickup in vacuum, VUV light emission in atmospheric pressureXe gas ambience, and hydrogen gas generation and thin solid film deposition in solutions. (3) Sound emission: It was demonstrated that the emitter is compatible with the use as 3-D objectsensing probe, non-contact actuator, digital speaker, and bio-acoustic communication.
