摘要: A four-level model of photoluminescence from Si nanocrystal arrays embedded in a SiO2 matrix is suggested. The allows for thermally activated transitions between singlet and triplet levels the exchange-split energy state an exciton excited silicon nanocrystal. An expression derived temperature dependence intensity monochromatic components. correlation found amount splitting emitted photon by comparing data with our experimental ion-synthesized nanocrystals matrix. explains finiteness at temperatures close to 0 K nonmonotonicity run intensity.
