Abstract

Room-temperature mid-IR emission from single-crystal silicon exposed to broadband (320 to 700 nm) light with power up to 150 m W has been revealed by Fourier transform IR emission spectroscopy. It is shown that broadband optical excitation significantly enhances IR emission in comparison with thermal emission. Spectral lines of lattice vibrations caused by interaction between combinations of longitudinal and transverse optical or acoustic phonons are identified in experimental IR emission spectra.
