摘要: The kinetics of photoluminescence (PL) and steady-state PL from silicon nanocrystals formed in the SiO2 matrix by ion implantation were studied experimentally for first time temperature range liquid-helium to room temperature. A dramatic increase decay time, accompanied intensity quenching, is observed below 70 K. results obtained indicate that nanocrystal arises radiative recombination excitons self-trapped at nanocrystal-SiO2 interface.
