Effects of localized laser-induced heating in the photoluminescence of silicon-vacancy color centers in 4H-SiC

Adolfo Misiara, Stephen Revesz, Ibrahim Boulares +1

Silicon vacancy (${\mathrm{V}}_{\mathrm{Si}}$) color centers in 4H-SiC are optically accessible through their zero-phonon line (ZPL) photoluminescence (PL), which is sensitive to the sample t…
