Energy transfer in Cr and Nd co-doped Si-B-Na-Al-Ca-Zr-O glasses (2019)
Journal Article
Hughes, M., Li, H., Curry, R., Suzuki, T., & Ohishi, Y. (2020). Energy transfer in Cr and Nd co-doped Si-B-Na-Al-Ca-Zr-O glasses. Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids, 530, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jnoncrysol.2019.119769

Cr and Nd co-doped glasses are potential gain media for solar pumped lasers (SPLs). Tanabe-Sugano analysis shows that Cr doped Si-B-Na-Al-Ca-Zr-O (SBNACZ) glass contains a mixture of Cr3+ with octahedral coordination and Cr6+with unknown coordinatio...

Optically modulated magnetic resonance of erbium implanted silicon (2019)
Journal Article
Hughes, M., Li, H., Theodoropoulou, N., & Carey, J. (2019). Optically modulated magnetic resonance of erbium implanted silicon. Scientific reports, 9(1), 19031. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-55246-z

Er implanted Si is an important candidate for quantum and photonic applications, but the Er centres involved are poorly understood, which has hindered development of these applications. Here we present the first measurement of the crystal field split... Read More about Optically modulated magnetic resonance of erbium implanted silicon.

Enhanced diffusion and bound exciton interactions of high density implanted bismuth donors in silicon (2019)
Journal Article
Peach, T., Stockbridge, K., Li, J., Lourenco, M., Homewood, K., Hughes, M., …Clowes, S. (2019). Enhanced diffusion and bound exciton interactions of high density implanted bismuth donors in silicon. Applied Physics Letters, 115(7), 072102. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5115835

This study reports the effect of an increasing ion dose on both the electrical activation yield and the characteristic properties of implanted bismuth donors in silicon. A strong dependence of implant fluence is observed on both the yield of bismuth...
