Abstract

Energy relaxation of hot electrons and holes confined in silicon nanocrystals embedded in SiO₂ matrix is studied theoretically. Phonon-assisted transitions rates strongly depend on nanocrystal diameter ranging from 10⁸ s^-1 to 10^-12 s^-1. The Auger-like transitions are found to be considerably faster and lead to rapid energy exchange within electron-hole pair.
