Abstract

Nanocrystals of wide band gap materials (GaN and In 2O 3) were synthesized by sequential ion implantation in dielectric substrates, followed by thermal annealing of the samples. Transmission electron microscopy, extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction analyses confirmed the formation of GaN and In 2O 3 crystalline nanoparticles. Blue shift of the near-edge photoluminescence (PL) band (quantum confinement effect) was observed for GaN nanocrystals. A strong PL band peaked at 3.35 eV was detected upon excitation of In 2O 3 nanocrystals at 5.20 eV.
