Abstract: We report the direct observation of silicon nanocrystals in unannealed siloxene using high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The microstructure consists of an amorphous matrix plus silicon crystallites with dimensions of a few nanometers. This is additional evidence that the photoluminescence of silicon-based materials is due to quantum confinement.
