Emission of the 1.54um Er-related peaks by impact excitation of Er atoms in InP and its characteristics

Abstract
The Er-related two peaks at 1. 54im and O. 99pm were observed by applying dc voltages to the Er-implanted InP layer. These peaks were assigned to the intra-4f transitions of Er3+ from I13/2 to ''15/2 and from I11/2 to I15/2 respectively. No other emission bands were observed in the wavelength range from 0. 8 to 1. 6/tm. The emission characteristics and the fine structure of the l. 54im emission spectrum were discussed in comparison with those of photoluminescence.
