Abstract :
SiGe/Si heterogeneous nanostructures are prepared by electrochemical anodization of SiGe/Si multiple layers grown by ultra-high vacuum chemical vapor deposition. Nanorods with densities up to ∼2×1011 cm−2 have been observed with a relatively uniform distribution confirmed by scanning electron microscope images of both top and cross-sectional views. The samples show visible photoluminescence with multiple peaks and narrow widths which is related to the interference effect. Finally, a model is proposed to explain the role of strain during the anodization of SiGe/Si multiple layers.
