We present preparation of Ge nanostructures formed using by femtosecond laser pulse and origin of visible photoluminescence (PL) properties. High intensity of incident laser energy gives rise to make oxidized layer to surface of Ge nanoparticle after irradiation. Moreover, size dependent Raman shift and PL spectrums are observed with different fluences and various process surroundings. It is noted that the oxidation of Ge nanoparticle formed ambient surroundings plays an important role of photoluminescence.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
