Photoluminescence properties of highly strained Ge/Si multi-layer heterostructures with incorporated groups laterally ordered SiGe quantum dots are studied in the wide range temperatures from 4.2 to 300 K. The phononless radiative recombination mechanism is found be dominating.

Sol-gel technology has attracted attention in the fabrication of diverse luminescent materials and thin film structures, with forms that range from powders to microcavities. The optical properties sol-gel-derived structures depend on sol composition, deposition, heat treatment conditions, as well thicknesses other factors. Investigations upconversion luminescence lanthanides are also ongoing. In this study, we synthesized three different types using same sol, which corresponded a...
