Effect of the matrix on the 1.5 μm photoluminescence of Er-doped silicon quantum dots

Erbium doped nanocrystalline silicon thin films were produced by reactive magnetron r.f sputtering. Their structural and chemical properties were studied by micro-Raman, spectroscopic ellipsometry and Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy. Films with different crystalline fraction and crystallite s...
