Abstract
The effect of ion-irradiation induced defect on the optically active Er3+ ions in Er doped silicon-rich silicon oxide (SRSO) film is investigated. We find that the initial presence of defects strongly reduces the fraction of Er ions that can be excited via nc-Si even after their removal via high-temperature annealing.
