ABSTRACTMicrocrystalline silicon embedded in silicon oxide has been prepared by means of partial oxidation of porous silicon produced anodically from degenerate p-Si wafers. Their optical properties such as absorption coefficients and luminescence have been characterized. Results show blue shifts in absorption and photoluminescence spectra in a visible wavelength region with decreasing size of the microcrystalline Si in the Si oxide matrix. The quantum size effect is discussed as well as possible origins of the observed visible luminescence, including light emission from as-anodized (or H-chemisorbed) porous silicon.

We propose and demonstrate a novel Ag:SiO2 diffusive memristor PUF, which takes advantage of the random dispersion of silver clusters in a silicon oxide matrix. Our PUFs are area efficient, self-digitized, easy to fabricate and provide a high level of security.

In the present work, we investigate the photoluminescence (PL) and structural properties of Si nanoparticles embedded in SiO2 matrix. Si-rich silicon oxide (SRSO) films with Si concentration of 39% were synthesized by reactive RF magnetron sputtering. Annealing was performed at temperatures between 600°C and 1100°C in N2 ambient for 2h to precipitate Si nanoparticles from oxide matrix. Near infrared photoluminescence around 750nm can be clearly observed even in the as-deposited films, which indicates the existence of Si nanoparticles in films. The structural properties were analyzed by infrared absorption and Raman spectra. It is found that the structural properties strongly affect the PL properties of Si nanoparticles embedded in SiO2 matrix.
