Key Points

Uniform diameter si-nanocrystals larger than 34nm were successfully grown using interfacial stress.
The optical constants of the silicon nanocrystals were measured to evaluate their properties.
Growth was achieved via a low-temperature process at 300°C, enhancing material compatibility.
The study highlights the potential of strain-mediated growth methods in nanocrystal fabrication.

Implication

This observational analysis shows uniform diameter si-nanocrystals > 34nm on MgO buffer, suggesting potential for low-temperature growth techniques.

Abstract

We discuss, how by exploiting large interfacial-stress between 5nm Si-film and 10nm MgO-buffer large diameter (> 34nm) uniform Si-nanocrystals (NCs) could be grown through a low-temperature (300°C) process. Optical constants of Si-NCs were further determined.
