Abstract

Porous silicon layers were prepared by electrochemical anodization of Si wafers in aqueous hydrofluoric acid solutions containing surfactants instead of ethanol. Mono- and poly-crystalline Si substrates, n(+) - and p-doped were anodised in aqueous HF solutions containing cationic or anionic surfactants, with the same electrochemical conditions but varying the surfactant type and concentration. Surfactant levels below and above the critical micellar concentration were studied. Under optimum conditions a uniform and bright photoluminescence is obtained from anodised n(+)-type mono-crystalline and p-type poly-crystalline materials, with slight differences in the positions of PL maxima. The resulting porous Si samples have been also characterised by Raman spectroscopy. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
