An investigation of efficient room temperature luminescence from silicon which contains dislocations

This thesis presents an investigation of the phenomenon of efficient, room temperature luminescence from dislocation-engineered (DE) silicon. Previous work had demonstrated that the introduction of near-surface dislocation loops to a silicon substrate by boron ion implantation and high temperature a...
