Optimization of photoluminescence from W centers in silicon-on-insulator

Sonia M. Buckley,
Alex N. Tait,
Galan Moody
et al.

Abstract: W centers are trigonal defects generated by self-ion implantation in silicon that exhibit photoluminescence at 1.218 µm. We have shown previously that they can be used in waveguide-integrated all-silicon light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Here we optimize the implant energy, fluence and anneal conditions to maximize the photoluminescence intensity for W centers implanted in silicon-on-insulator, a substrate suitable for waveguide-integrated devices. After optimization, we observe near two orders of magnitude improv… Show more

“…The properties of silicon emissive defects in photonics-compatible SOI have not been studied or optimized until recently. Figure 1(d) shows an optimization of implant parameters performed in [4]. Unlike in bulk Si (blue triangles), W-center brightness in SOI is strongly dependent on implant energy.…”

“…While it is off, the temperature begins to increase, reaching 40 K in approximately 12 minutes. W-center brightness drops by 12% between 28 K and 40 K and then drops off precipitously above 45 K [24,14]. All measurements in this work were taken between 28 K and 40 K.…”
