Research Abstract |
We have studied the abovementioned title for the recent two years from April, 1997 to March, 1999, and we have obtained the results as shown below. These indicate that we can synthesize more functional nanostructures by means of the second pulsed modification of the surfaces of nanoparticles and fabricate Si nanoparticle films exhibiting high efficient photoluminescence(PL) and electroluminescence (EL) without any contaminations, using laser ablation technique. [I] Time-resolved structure measurement of growth og Si nanoparticles : 1) No significant clustering and growth of nanoparticles have been observed until 15 mu s by time-resolved laser-plasma soft-X-ray absorption measurement. 2) By time-resolved PL and Rayleigh scattering measurements, it was found that the nanoparticle growth takes place at around 1 ms and that the spatial distribution of formed nanoparticles is much different between He and Ar gas atmosphere. 3) It was clarified by the newly developed second-laser irradiation method that relatively small Si nanoparticles begins to grow in the time scale from 100 mu s to 1 ms. [II] Fabrication of Si and SiGe nanoparticle films : 1) We observed three PL bands for Si nanoparticle films, and the PL intensity depends strongly on the surface oxidation. 2) The size of Si nanoparticles ranges form 2 to 3 nm. 3) Si nanocrystallites in SiO2 with strong PL can be realized by annealing SiOx films deposited by laser ablation. The optimum value of x is 1.3-1.4 for obtaining high efficient light emission. 4) By laser ablation, we have fabricated EL-device structures using SiGe nanoparticles, which shows visible EL.
