Porous silicon layers have been prepared from n-type silicon wafers of (100) orientation. SEM, XRD, FTIR, and PL have been used to characterize the morphological and optical properties of porous silicon. The influence of varying HF concentration in the anodizing solution, on structural and optical properties of porous silicon has been investigated. It is observed that pore size increases with HF:ethanol concentration ratio and attain maximum for 1:2 ratio and then decreases.

Porous silicon (PS) layers have been prepared from n-type silicon wafers of (100) orientation. SEM, FTIR, and PL have been used to characterize the morphological and optical properties of PS. The influence of varying light illumination in the anodizing solution, on structural and optical properties of PS, has been investigated. It is observed that pore size increases with light illumination level, attains maximum for 17.5 mW/m2 and then decreases. The PL spectrum peak shifts toward the higher energy side, which supports the quantum confinement effect in PS. The FTIR shows that the Si – H n peaks are observed at the surface of the PS layer and these chemical species also give raise the PL in PS.

In this paper the reflectance spectra and transmission spectra of p-Si (100) porous silicon (PS) and silicon wires in the spectral range of 200 ÷ 1800 nm were investigated. Pore size of PS was 5 μm (lpor Si layer) and 50 μm (lpor Si layer) with porosity of 45 %, 55 % and 65 %. The length of silicon wires varies from 5.5 μm, to 50 μm with a porosity of 60 %. The decrease in the band gap of p-Si (100) porous silicon and silicon wires which grown on both sides of p-Si (100) as compared to the single crystal p-Si (100) is explained by the quantum-sized effect that occurs in the investigated objects.

Boron doped porous silicon with the observed photoluminescence with a crystallographic orientation of (100), which was fabricated based on a p-type silicon substrate using electrochemical etching in a solution containing hexafluorosilicic acid and ethyl alcohol was studied. A comparative analysis of the morphology, structural and optical properties of silicon nanostructures obtained in a solution containing H2(SiF6) and ethanol and samples obtained in a solution containing HF and ethanol was performed. Morphology, structural and optical properties were studied using scanning probe microscopy and spectrophotometry. It was shown that samples of porous silicon obtained in a solution containing H2(SiF6) and ethanol are characterized by improved optical properties, in particular, they exhibit more intense photoluminescence compared to samples obtained in solutions with HF and ethyl alcohol.
