Abstract

Raman spectroscopy is employed for studying silicon nanocrystal arrays in boron-doped amorphous silicon films. The nanocrystals were formed in the initial amorphous films by the pulsed impact of an excimer laser. The electron-phonon interaction effects are observed experimentally in the heterostructure formed by a silicon nanocrystal and an amorphous matrix. These effects can be described in the framework of the familiar Fano interference model.
