Abstract
Si nanoclusters embedded in two different dielectric matrices, silicon oxide and silicon nitride, have been formed through annealing of Si-rich silicon oxide (SRSO) and Si-rich silicon nitride (SRSN) thin films. The light emitting properties of these materials have been analyzed through room temperature UV-excited photoluminescence (PL) experiments. Features of the PL spectra from both types are presented and the nature of light emission from Si-nanoclusters is discussed on the basis of the results from these two different host environments.
