Light emission from MOS tunnel diodes biased in the Fowler-Nordheim regime has been investigated by using especially designed test structures which avoid the obscuring effect of poly-Si layer, thus allowing an efficient light emission from the Si substrate. The measured photon energy distribution of the emitted light is consistent with a hot carrier radiation model.

Abstract
Light emission from MOS tunnel diodes biased in the Fowler-Nordheim regime has been investigated by using especially designed test structures which avoid the obscuring effect of poly-Si layer, thus allowing an efficient light emission from the Si substrate. The measured photon energy distribution of the emitted light is consistent with a hot carrier radiation model.File in questo prodotto:
