Measurements of Luminescence from Cleaved Silicon
arXiv:0708.1847
Abstract
This paper outlines the results from experiments performed to gain further information about the structure and properties of cleaved silicon surfaces, using vacuum cleavage luminescence detection methods. The experiments involved detecting the luminescence produced by cleaving thin silicon plates within a high vacuum, by a process of converting the luminescence to an amplified electrical signal.
