Silicon nanocrystals microcavity

We report the fabrication of dielectric mirrors microcavity with silicon nanocrystals layer as the emitting layer. The fabrication process allowed the non degradation of the optical properties of the emettors. By angular-resolved photoluminescence, we investigated changes in angular emission pattern caused by a half cavity and a full cavity. We show that the whole energy emitted in the half cavity vertical cone emission is concentrated in the sharp full cavity vertical cone emission.
