On the effects of double-step anneal treatments on light emission from Er-doped Si-rich silicon oxide
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We have studied photoluminescence (PL) from an Er-doped Si-rich Si oxide (SRSO) film thermally annealed under different conditions. Compared to the case of annealing in N2 alone, double-step annealing the film at 875°C in N2 and then at ∼850°C in O2 or vice versa increases Er PL intensities by 10%–15%; while double-step annealing in N2+5%H2 (FG) and then in O2 or vice versa yields significant enhancements of the PL from the SRSO matrix and the Er PL intensity decreases differently by exchanging the processing order. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicates that silicon oxynitride forms after annealing in FG ambient, and for the samples initially oxidized, the increase of Er PL intensity after secondary annealing in N2 (or FG) is due to more Si nanoclusters being formed. The PL spectra exhibit different annealing behavior with increasing the FG annealing temperature and the processing order. Weak oxygen bonds and silicon oxynitrides are believed to form upon O2 and FG annealing, respectively, and play important roles in the PL.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
