Photoluminescence Enhancement of Silicon Quantum Dot Monolayer by Double Resonance Plasmonic Substrate

Abstract: A structure composed of a monolayer of luminescent silicon quantum dots (Si-QDs) and a silver (Ag) film over nanosphere (AgFON) plasmonic nanostructure is prepared by precisely controlling the distance. A AgFON structure modifies both the photoluminescence (PL) and the PL excitation (PLE) spectra of a Si-QD monolayer significantly. It is shown that the spectral shape is very sensitive to the spacer thickness and the wavelength dependence of the PL and PLE enhancement factors agrees well with the absorptance sp… Show more

“…When Al 2 O 3 is inserted into our devices with prominent surface passivation effect, the lifetime becomes longer due to the suppression of ultrafast nonradiative recombination, which is related to surface defects such as that of Si dangling bonds . The lifetime also becomes longer when Ag nanoparticles are introduced into our devices and lifetime of the devices with Al 2 O 3 ‐Ag HNs is the longest due to the absorption section enlargement since the absorption peak appears in the short wavelength range with LSPR and this peak is blueshifted when Al 2 O 3 is introduced, as shown in Figure a . This means that more excitation light is absorbed, leading to more photogenerated carriers and corresponding the longer PL lifetime, because the lifetime of radiative recombination in Si QDs is much longer than that of nonradiative recombination.…”

“…PL intensity is obviously enhanced after insertion of Al 2 O 3 or Ag and the strongest PL is obtained with Al 2 O 3 ‐Ag HNs. It is worth noticing that with changing the four kinds of substrates, location of the PL peak is nearly the same, indicating that the coupling between LSPs and the incident excitation laser, instead of the internal emission light of Si QDs, may dominate the PL improvement with LSPR …”
