摘要
We have studied generation of visible photoluminescence (PL) in porous silicon (PSi) under resonant two-photon excitation. While the temporal decays of the resonant photoluminescence excited by one- and two-photon absorption are identical and show the same temperature dependence, the PL response differs significantly near the excitation energy. Contrary to one-photon excitation, no spectral gap between the excitation energy and the onset of the two-photon excited PL is observed. This is explained in the framework of selection rules for dipole allowed and forbidden optical exciton transitions in silicon nanocrystals. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics.
