摘要
Terahertz-range photo luminescence from silicon-germanium crystals and superlattices doped by phosphor has been studied under optical excitation by radiation from a mid-infrared CO2 laser at low temperature. SiGe crystals with a Ge content between 0.9 and 6.5 %, doped by phosphor with a concentration optimal for silicon laser operation, do not exhibit terahertz gain. On the contrary, terahertz-range gain of similar to 2.3 - 3.2 cm(-1) has been observed for donor-related optical transitions in Si/SiGe strained superlattices at pump intensities above 100 kW/cm(2).
