Abstract :
After a brief review of light emission in field effect transistors, we extract some electrical and physical parameters linked to the emission of photons such as VDD and channel length. Using 120 nm technology structures (nMOS, pMOS, inverters, etc.) we compare emissions with the following detectors: CCD, MCT for static emission, PICA, SiAPD and SSPD for time resolved photon emission (TRE). Results are interpreted according to the quantum efficiency of detectors as a function of wavelength. Finally, the wavelength shift is addressed by confronting practical results with earlier publications on light emission spectra.
