Abstract

Photoluminescence (PL) properties of arrays of spatially ordered single Ge(Si) self-assembled islands, including embedded in two-dimensional photonic crystals (PhC), was studied. Incorporation of an array of ordered single islands and their groups into PhC significantly increases the intensity of their PL signal. The most pronounced increase in intensity (up to 30 times at nitrogen temperatures) is observed for an ordered array of single islands. The increase in PL intensity is associated with interaction of island emission with the radiation modes of the PhC, which is more efficient for an array of spatially ordered single islands. As result PL from single ordered Ge(Si) islands embedded in PhC was observed up to room temperature.
