Understanding electroluminescence from thin silicon dioxide films

Electroluminescence from SiO2 has been studied both experimentally and theoretically. Numerical simulations have been carried out to investigate electroluminescence and impact ionization processes. A firm connection between electroluminescence and impact ionization has been shown.
