摘要
Sharp, well-resolved near band-edge photoluminescence (PL) has been observed from long-period Si1-xGex/Si superlattices grown by molecular-beam epitaxy, including PL from a 120 angstrom Si/40 angstrom Si1-xGex sample. The sharp PL is due to shallow bound excitons (BE), and consists of a no-phonon (NP) line as well as phonon-assisted lines. The exciton binding energies obtained from the temperature dependence of the BE(NP) lines are in the range of 4-6 meV.
