説明

We have characterized the optical properties of heteroepitexial Si1- xC x/Si (0≤ x≤ 0.014) alloys grown on Si substrates by solid phase epitaxy using spectroscopic ellipsometry and photoluminescence. The measured dielectric function confirms that the samples are of good crystalline quality. The 14-K photoluminescence spectra of Si1- xC x/Si show several defect peaks. After hydrogen passivation, we observed a new peak near 1.15-1.17 eV which increases in energy with the incorporation of carbon. We tentatively assign this peak to the no-phonon peak of the Si1- xC x epi-layer. We discuss the alloy shift of the observed spectroscopic features in terms of the C-induced change in the Si indirect band gap.
