Low-temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra of electron-hole systems in Si nanowires (NWs) prepared by thermal oxidization of Si fin structures were studied. Mapping of PL reveals that NWs with uniform width are formed over a large area. Annealing temperature dependence of PL peak intensities was maximized at 400 °C for each NW type, which are consistent with previous reports. Our results confirmed that the micro-PL demonstrated here is one of the important methods for characterizations of

Interfacial states of silicon nanowire field-effect transistors with rectangular-like cross-sections (wire height of 10 nm and widths of 9 and 18 nm) have been evaluated from the transfer characteristics in the subthreshold region measured at cryogenic temperatures, where kinks in the drain current becomes prominent. It is found that the kinks can be well-explained assuming local interfacial states near the conduction band (Ec). The main extracted local states have been shown to exist at 10 and 31 meV below Ec with the densities of 1.3×1013 cm−2/eV and 5.4×1012 cm−2/eV, respectively. By comparing two field-effect transistors with different wire widths, the former states can be assigned to the states located at the corner and the side surface of the wire, and the latter to the top and the bottom surfaces.
