Abstract
Germanium oxide thin films on silicon substrate were produced using pulsed laser deposition method under adjusted substrate temperature and oxygen pressure. There existed two PL bands observed in our samples, violet and blue bands. We attributed both of them to the neutral oxygen vacancy (NOV) but of different types: GeGe and GeSi, respectively. Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) measurements in our samples not only proved the GeOSi vibration but also assigned the peaks around 1000cm-1 in Si-Ge oxide system qualitatively.
