Abstract
We present a method of Si–Ge QDs formation by ion beam implantation (IBI) technique and high temperature annealing for self-organization. Implantation doses varied from 1014 to 1017 cm–2, ion energies ranged from 50 to 150 keV, annealing proceeded at temperature of 950 to 1050°C in argon environment. Formed QDs show strong infrared (IR) photoluminescence (PL) in the temperature region 15–250 K.
