Abstract
Summary from only given. We report the possibility of breaking the indirect-bandgap limitation to efficiently generate light from Si. We theoretically and experimentally discovered that carrier localization could enhance radiative recombination corresponding to bandgap energy of Si for orders of magnitudes. Nearly lasing actions corresponding to Si bandgap energy were even observed with the enhanced radiative recombination.
