Visualizing charge transport in silicon nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 films with electrostatic force microscopy

In this work, we report a mapping of charge transport in silicon nanocrystals (nc-Si) embedded in SiO2 dielectric films with electrostatic force microscopy. The charge diffusion from chargednc-Si to neighboring uncharged nc-Si in the SiO2 matrix is found to be the dominant mechanism for the decay of...
