✦ Synopsis

We present the first findings of a study of infrared-induced emission from silicon quantum wires, which is due to the formation of a correlation gap in the DOS of the degenerate hole gas. The quantum wires in this case are created by an electrostatic confining potential inside ultra-shallow p-n junctions which are realized using controlled surface injection of self-interstitials and vacancies in the process of non-equilibrium boron diffusion.

Mid-infrared optical emission due to intersubband transitions between excited conduction subbands of a coupled quantum well structure is studied. The emission process is based on optical pumping of free carriers from the ground subband into the third subband followed by a radiative transition from t
