We have fabricated multiple-stacked phosphorous doped Si quantum dots (P-doped Si-QDs) embedded in SiO2on n-Si(100) structures and characterized their field electron emission under DC bias application to semitransparent Au top-electrodes. At applied biases of −8 V and over, the electron emission signal with a peak kinetic energy at ~2.0 eV was detected. In addition, we also found that the electron emission was drastically enhanced with an increase in the applied DC bias over −11 V. The applied bias dependence of emission intensities shows that the P-doped Si-QDs is effective to improve electron emission efficiency while undoped Si-QDs stack is suited to low power operation. This indicates that electric field was reduced near the top side of the Si-QDs stack and an increase in electron injection rate from the n-Si(100) to the dots by phosphorus doping plays a role on high efficient electron emission from the Si-QDs stacked structures.
