Clusters and nanocrystals with semiconducting properties are of interest for science and industry due to their size-dependent electronic structure. While currently only direct band gap semiconductors like GaAs are used in light-emitting devices, luminescence of Silicon nanostructures has already been discovered in 1990 and drew attention to the light emission of elemental indirect band gap semiconductor nanostructures. Despite the focus on Si, the underlying origins of the luminescence which are still not fully determined are expected to be of a more universal nature.
Dispersed luminescence and total luminescence yields of various types of diamondoids have been recorded after photoexcitation with synchrotron radiation. Both the excitation energies end photoemission spectra are in the ultraviolet spectral range. Strong dependencies of emission and absorption spectra on the size and shape of the diamondoids have been measured.
