Determination of critical points on silicon nanofilms: Surface and quantum confinement effects
(2008)In this work, we present a comprehensive study of the optical properties of nanocrystalline silicon films with thickness varied from 5 to 30 nm. Spectroscopic ellipsometry is employed to determine the dielectric functions ...

Quantum confinement and interface structure of Si nanocrystals of sizes 3-5 nm embedded in a-SiO2
(2007)Spectroscopic ellipsometry and Monte Carlo simulations are employed to answer the fundamental question whether the energy gaps of Si nanocrystals with sizes in the range of 3-5 nm, which are embedded in amorphous silica, ...

Transient photoinduced absorption in ultrathin as-grown nanocrystalline silicon films
(2008)We have studied ultrafast carrier dynamics in nanocrystalline silicon films with thickness of a few nanometers where boundary-related states and quantum confinement play an important role. Transient non-degenerated ...
