A microcavity enhancement of room temperature photoluminescence (PL) of a hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:h) was performed. A quantum confinement model was developed to describe the occurrence of the PL in the bulk a-Si:H. According to the model, small a-Si clusters are in a matrix of a-Si:H. The regions with Si-H, having larger energy gaps due to strong Si-H bonds, isolate these clusters, and form barrier regions around them. The PL originates from these a-Si clusters.

Microcavity effects in the photoluminescence of hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride Serpenguzel, A; Aydinli, A; Bek, Alpan (1998-01-01) Fabry-Perot microcavities are used for the alteration of photoluminescence in hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride grown with and without ammonia. The photoluminescence is red-near-infrared for the samples grown without ammonia, and blue-green far the samples grown with ammonia. In the Fabry-Perot microcavities, the amplitude of the photoluminescence is enhanced, while its linewidth is reduced with respect to the bulk hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride. The microcavity was realized by a metallic back ...
Photoluminescence analyses of hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride thin films ANUTGAN, MUSTAFA; Anutgan, Tamila (Aliyeva); ATILGAN, İSMAİL; Katircioglu, Bayram (2011-07-01) Silicon-rich hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride (a-SiN(x):H) films were grown by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) with different r=NH(3)/SiH(4) gas flow ratios. The optical absorption characteristics were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and UV-visible transmittance spectroscopies. The recombination properties were investigated via photoluminescence (PL) measurements. As r was increased from 2 to 9, the PL emission color could be adjusted from red to blue with the emission ...
Low temperature plasma as a means to transform nanoparticle atomic structure Üner, Necip Berker; Thimsen, E. (2018-07-01) Low temperature plasma (LTP) is a highly nonequilibrium substance capable of increasing the specific free energy of mass that flows through it. Despite this attractive feature, there are few examples of the transformation of solid material with an equilibrium atomic structure into a material with a nonequilibrium atomic structure. As a proposed example of such a transformation, in this work, it is argued that the transformation of crystalline metal nanoparticles into amorphous metal nanoparticles is feasibl...
High strength metallic wood from nanostructured nickel inverse opal materials Pikul, James H.; Özerinç, Sezer; Liu, Burigede; ZHANG, Runyu; BRAUN, Paul V.; Deshpande, Vikram S.; KING, William P. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-01-24) This paper describes a nickel-based cellular material, which has the strength of titanium and the density of water. The material's strength arises from size-dependent strengthening of load-bearing nickel struts whose diameter is as small as 17 nm and whose 8 GPa yield strength exceeds that of bulk nickel by up to 4X. The mechanical properties of this material can be controlled by varying the nanometer-scale geometry, with strength varying over the range 90-880 MPa, modulus varying over the range 14-116 GPa,...
Photoluminescence spectroscopy in the study of growth of CdSxSe1-x nanocrystals in glass Allahverdi, C; Yukselici, MH; Turan, Raşit; Seyhan, A (IOP Publishing, 2004-08-01) Growth of CdS0.08Se0.92 nanocrystals embedded in glass is studied through the combinative analysis of optical absorption and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy at room temperature. The quantum confinement effect is observed in these structures. Average nanocrystal radii are found to be in the range of 2.3-4.2 nm with the help of a quantized state effective mass theory. Photoluminescence spectra are studied by means of the model of Ravindran et al (1999 Nanostruct. Mater. 11 603). The difference between the...
