Strain-modulated Ge superlattices

We present a numerical study of the electronic and optical properties of a model single-element superlattice made of a periodic sequence of relaxed and strained regions of a germanium crystal, realized by means of an externally applied strain. We adopt the tight-binding model to evaluate the strain-driven modifications of the band structure and the optical properties. Superlattice band gaps, spatial confinement of near-gap valence and conduction states, and analysis of their symmetry character, have been obtained for different superlattice periodicities and strain intensities. Our results indicate that, for suitable choices of spatial periodicity and strain values, type-I and direct-gap superlattices, with strong dipole matrix elements, can be realized. Conceptually, we demonstrate that Ge single-element strained superlattices could be active materials for novel Si-compatible optical devices.

Float-Zone Mono-Crystalline Silicon

PAM-XIAMEN can offer float zone silicon wafer, which is obtained by Float Zone method. Monocrystalline silicon rods is got through float zone growth, and then process the monocrystalline silicon rods into silicon wafers, called float zone silicon wafers. Since the zone-melted silicon wafer is not in contact with the quartz crucible during the floating zone silicon process, the silicon material is in a suspended state. Thereby, it is less polluted during the process of floating zone melting of silicon. The carbon content and oxygen content are lower, the impurities are less, and the resistivity is higher. It is suitable for the manufacture of power devices and certain high-voltage electronic devices.
