Multicolor light-emitting devices with Tb(2)O(3) on silicon

Great efforts have been devoted to achieving efficient Si-based light-emitting devices. Here we report new light-emitting devices fabricated with Tb(2)O(3) on Si substrates. Intense green electroluminescence was observed, with a turn-on voltage of about 8 V. The green emission is attributed to the c...

Sumario:Great efforts have been devoted to achieving efficient Si-based light-emitting devices. Here we report new light-emitting devices fabricated with Tb(2)O(3) on Si substrates. Intense green electroluminescence was observed, with a turn-on voltage of about 8 V. The green emission is attributed to the characteristic transitions of Tb(3+) ions in Tb(2)O(3). The electroluminescence mechanisms of the Tb(2)O(3) light-emitting devices are discussed. In addition, visible and near infrared electroluminescence was observed in rare-earth (Eu(3+), Sm(3+) and Yb(3+)) doped Tb(2)O(3) light-emitting devices.
