This work deals with the electrical and optical properties of various Si/CaF2 heterostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy. This technique of growth allows us to fabricate very thin CaF2 layers and more complex structures such as photoluminescent multilayers as well as Fabry-Perot structures.In the first part, we have investigated the electrical properties of thin CaF2 layers either monocristallines or nanocristallines deposited on Si(111) substrates of different thicknesses by varying the growth parameters, in particular the substrate temperature. This study demonstrates the importance of the preparation of the Si substrate to get high quality CaF2 layers. In particular, a template layer of Si permits to get CaF2 layers exempt of pin-h...
