Abstract

Structural investigations of Si films prepared by laser-assisted deposition indicate that the strong visible photoluminescence can be related to the presence of crystalline cubic Si (c-Si) inclusions in an amorphous media with smooth surface morphology. The PL characteristics are determined by the specific short-range arrangement of Si atoms in the amorphous media and by the size and the density of the embedded c-Si crystallites.
