The results of studying the photoluminescence of nanoheterostructures with multiple Ge1-x-ySixSny/Si quantum wells grown by molecular beam epitaxy on silicon substrates and annealed at different temperatures are presented. As a result of the annealing of the structures, a multifold increase in the intensity of the luminescence peak close in energy to the optical transitions within the multiple quantum wells is observed. The optimal annealing temperature and duration are determined in terms of the intensity of photoluminescence. The luminescent properties of a series of annealed Ge0.93-xSixSn0.07/Si structures with different Ge compositions are investigated. As a result, a shift of the low-temperature photoluminescence peak towards lower energies with an increase in the fraction of germanium in the alloy composition is shown. Thus, the possibility of controlling the luminescence spectrum of Ge0.93-xSixSn0.07/Si nanoheterostructures in the wavelength range of 1.3 −2.0 µm is demonstrated.
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.
