Abstract
Laser implantation can be used for the incorporation of metal nanoparticles into a dielectric matrix. To this end, a thin gold coating on a silicon suboxide (SiOx, x < 2) film is irradiated with a nanosecond laser resulting in the formation of gold nanoparticles in this SiOx-film. By thermal treatment, Si quantum dots are formed by a phase separation of SiOx into Si and SiO2. These Si quantum dots exhibit visible-NIR photoluminescence, which is significantly enhanced through the coupling with the nearby plasmonic gold particles. A more than twofold enhancement is obtained.
