Abstract

Reported here are electroluminescent properties of nanometer sized particles in an SiO2 host matrix, which were fabricated by LPCVD techniques. The films have demonstrated reproducible emission from well below 400 nm to well above 800 nm. It is believed that dispersion effects of the nanocrystals can account for 'white' light emission. The films have been characterized using PL, Raman, XRD, TEM and SIMS.
