C60 molecules were chemically coupled in the pores of porous Si through a coupling agent and then coated with a layer of Si, and followed by N2 annealing. X-ray diffraction results indicate that the fabricated samples contain β-SiC particles which may exist in the pores, in addition to Si, SiO2, and graphite. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra show an asymmetrical broadband, which can be Gaussian divided into two bands at 380 (3.26 eV) and 454 (2.73 eV) nm. Spectral analyses and the experimental results from infrared spectroscopy and PL excitation measurements suggest that the 380 nm PL band is related to oxygen-vacancy defects in the SiO2 matrix, whereas the blue PL band is closely connected with the β-SiC particles. Our experiments provide a way for fabricating stable blue-emitting β-SiC materials.
