摘要
The ability to use a laser to direct-write tracks of localized emission enhancement in PECVD-deposited Silicon rich oxide (SRO) films is demonstrated. For this purpose, 400nm thick SRO films with varying excess Si content were irradiated with loosely focused 355nm, 12ps pulses at 80MHz while being translated at 2mm/s. Mapping of areas irradiated with energies between 4.7nJ and 5.5nJ/pulse exhibits regions with the largest emission enhancement. Raman and photoluminescence (PL) measurements suggest precipitation of amorphous and crystalline Si nanoclusters. In the most emissive regions, the PL efficiency of the laser-annealed films was similar to 70% of that obtained by standard oven-annealing processes. Stress in Si crystals in some areas is identified as leading to quenching of the PL and is hypothesized to be caused by the densification of SRO matrix. (C) 2011 Optical Society of America
