Abstract: A silicon oxide film (2) comprising an amorphous phase is deposited on a substrate (1) (see a step (b)) by a plasma CVD method using an SiH4 gas and an N2O gas. Subsequently, a sample comprising the silicon oxide film (2)/the substrate (1) is set on an RTA apparatus. The sample (=the silicon oxide film (2)/the substrate (1)) is heat-treated (rapid heating and rapid cooling) (see a step (c)). In this case, a temperature raising rate is 200° C./s, and a temperature in heat treatment is 1000° C.

Abstract: A light-emitting device includes an n-type silicon thin film (2), a silicon thin film (3), and a p-type silicon thin film (4). The silicon thin film (3) is formed on the n-type silicon thin film (2) and the p-type silicon thin film (4) is formed on the silicon thin film (3). The n-type silicon thin film (2), the silicon thin film (3), and the p-type silicon thin film (4) form a pin junction. The n-type silicon thin film (2) includes a plurality of quantum dots (21) composed of n-type Si. The silicon thin film (3) includes a plurality of quantum dots (31) composed of p-type Si. The p-type silicon thin film (4) includes a plurality of quantum dots (41) composed of p-type Si. Electrons are injected from the n-type silicon thin film (2) side and holes are injected from the p-type silicon thin film (4) side, whereby light is emitted at a silicon nitride film (3).

Abstract: Optical waveguides and optical transceivers are formed on one main surface of a semiconductor substrate. A light source is provided on one side surface of the semiconductor substrate, and emits light to the optical waveguides. In each of the optical transceivers, when a voltage is applied to a silicon layer, an optical resonator resonates with any one of the light components traveling through the optical waveguides, and emits the light component to an optical transmission member. In addition, in each of the optical transceivers, when a voltage is applied to the silicon layer, another optical resonators resonate with light traveling through the optical transmission member and emit the resonance light to photodetectors, respectively.
