摘要: Abstract Photoluminescence (PL) measurements of porous silicon (PS) and iron-porous nanocomposites (PS/Fe) with stable optical properties versus temperature laser power density have been investigated. The presence iron in PS matrix is confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. PL intensity PS/Fe increases at low temperature, the evolution integrated follows modified Arrhenius model. incorporation reduces activation energy traducing existence shallow levels related to atoms. Also, dependence peak position a linear high quadratic one temperature. Such due thermal carriers' redistribution an transfer. Similarly, we compared layers. results prove that recombination process realised through lower traps localised electronic gap. However, observed emission essentially direct transitions. So, can conclude induces strong modification mechanisms.
