Doping porous silicon with erbium: pores filling as a method to limit the Er-clustering effects and increasing its light emission
Abstract Er clustering plays a major role in hindering sufficient optical gain in Er-doped Si materials. For porous Si, the long-standing failure to govern the clustering has been attributed to insufficient knowledge of the several, concomitant and complex processes occurring during the electrochemi...
