摘要
Room temperature photoluminescence of Er ions at 1.54 mu m corresponding to (4)I(13/2) - (4)I(15/2) transition in the ion f-shell was observed in erbium-doped hydrogenated amorphous silicon carbide films (a-Si(1-x)C(x):H[Er]). Films of a-Si(1-x)C(x):H[Er] were prepared by co-sputtering of graphite and Er targets applying the magnetron-assisted silane-decomposition technique with mixtures of Ar and silane. The composition of films (x) was 0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.29. The concentration of incorporated Er-ions was 6 x 10(19) cm(-3). The excitation mechanism of the Er ions in amorphous hydrogenated silicon carbide doped with erbium is discussed within the framework of the defect related Auger excitation model.
