SiOx/Si radial superlattices and microtube optical ring resonators

preprint2006arXivOpen access

Abstract

Scanning and transmission electron microscopy reveal that SiOx/Si layers can roll-up into microtubes and radial superlattices on a Si substrate. These hybrid objects are thermally stable up to 850 C and emit light in the visible spectral range at room temperature. For tubes disengaged from the substrate surface, optically resonant emission with mode spacings inversely proportional to the tube diameter are observed and agree excellently with those obtained from Finite-Different-Time-Domain simulations. The resonant modes we record are strictly polarized along the tube axis.
