Single-mode room-temperature emission with a silicon rod lattice
17th Nov 2006, 02:41 GMT
B. Cluzel, V. Calvo, T. Charvolin, E. Picard, P. Noe et al. The authors experimentally evidence an increase of light emission efficiency at room temperature in a silicon-on-insulator photonic crystal. The photonic crystal is made of a triangular lattice of silicon rods and operates as a single-mode light extractor. It exhibits a luminescence intensity two or ... [Appl. Phys.
