Doped Silicon Nanoparticles Synthesized by Nonthermal Plasma
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2011
Abstract
Silicon nanoparticles (Si-NPs) < 6 nm have been doped with B and P in nonthermal plasma. The doping efficiency of B is smaller than that of P, consistent with the theoretically predicted larger formation energy of B than P. The effect of doping on the oxidation-induced changes in light emission from Si-NPs is different between B and P. It appears that P is at or near the surface of Si-NPs, and that B is well incorporated inside Si-NPs. Inks based on doped Si-NPs are produced by attaching alkyl ligands to the surface of Si-NPs and dispersing them in organic solvents.
