On the bremsstrahlung origin of hot-carrier-induced photons in silicon devices
Abstract
Spectrally resolved absolute measurements of hot-carrier-induced photon emission in silicon are reported. In order to avoid uncertainties in geometrical and physical parameters, the simplest conceivable device, an avalanching p-n junction, was used. A photon emission efficiency of 2.9*10/sup 5/ photons with energy higher than 1.14 eV per carrier crossing the junction, independent of the lattice temperature down to 20 K, was measured. On the basis of these results the bremsstrahlung origin of the hot-carrier-induced light emission is critically reviewed.>

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
