N2 - A micro- or nanosized electrically controlled source of optical radiation is one of the key elements in optoelectronic systems. The phenomenon of light emission via inelastic tunneling (LEIT) of electrons through potential barriers or junctions opens up new possibilities for development of such sources. In this work, we present a simple approach for fabrication of nanoscale electrically driven light sources based on LEIT. We employ STM lithography to locally modify the surface of a Si/Au film stack via heating, which is enabled by a high-density tunnel current. Using the proposed technique, hybrid Si/Au nanoantennas with a minimum diameter of 60 nm were formed. Studying both electronic and optical properties of the obtained nanoantennas, we confirm that the resulting structures can efficiently emit photons in the visible range because of inelastic scattering of electrons. The proposed approach allows for fabrication of nanosized hybrid nanoantennas and studying their properties using STM.
