Research Abstract |
Self-aligned Si-based quantum dots(Si-QDs) have been successfully fabricated on ultrathin SiO_2 by controlling low-pressure chemical vapor deposition(LPCVD) using pure SiH_4 and/or Si_2H_6, selective Ge LPCVD from 5% GeH_4 diluted with He, thermal oxidation of the dots and subsequent thermal desorption of Ge oxide. In semitransparent Au-gate diodes with self-aligned dots so-prepared, when carriers were injected to the self-aligned Si-QDs from the n-Si(100) substrate for electrons and from the Au top electrode for holes, electroluminescence(EL) in the near-infrared region at room temperature becomes observable with an increase in current at positive biases over a threshold voltage as low as~ 1. 2 V at the Au top electrode. Note that, in the case of an areal dot density of ~10^<13> cm^<-2>, the EL threshold voltage was reduced down to~ 60% of that of ~10^<11> cm^<-2> and emission intensity was enhanced markedly by a factor of ~425 in comparison with the case of ~10^<11> cm^<-2> under the same current density. This is clear evidence of not only an increase in radiative recombination rate in the self-aligned structure but also an improvement of recombination efficiency due to a decrease in current leakage with increasing dot density.
