The ability of porous silicon to actively participate in oxidative reactions leading to combustion and explosion when interacting with reagents in the pores was established about twenty years ago [1] but because of the high propagation velocities of these physicochemical transformations (102-103 m/s), it was di©cult to understand their mechanisms.

AbstractThe maximum photoresponse of a normal silicon photodetector, that uses a p-n junction as the active zone, is obtained when the incident radiation wavelength is around 750nm. This response diminishes significantly when the incident radiation is near or in the UV region. Meanwhile, nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si) films with high transparency above 650nm and high absorbance in the UV can be prepared. By quantum confinement effects, a fraction of this absorbed UV energy is re-emitted as visible photons that can be used by the junction. We study the enhancement of the UV-photoresponse of two silicon detector prototypes with a silicon p-n junction active zone and with a photoluminescent nc-Si overlayer. One prototype is made with a porous silicon/n-type silicon/p-type silicon/p++-silicon/metal configuration and the other with an Eu-doped Si-SiO2 overlayer instead of the porous silicon one. The comparison between both prototypes and the control is presented and discussed stressing on the enhancement effect introduced by the photoluminescent overlayers, stability and reproducibility.

Tuning the pore diameter of porous silicon (PS) is essential for some applications such as biosensing, where the pore size can filter the entrance of some analytes or increase its sensitivity. However, macropore (>50 nm) formation on p-type silicon is still poorly known due to the strong dependence on resistivity. Electrochemically etching heavily doped p-type silicon usually forms micropores (<5 nm), but it has been found that bigger sizes can be achieved by adding an organic solvent to the electrolyte. In this work, we present the results of using dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), potassium hydroxide (KOH) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) for macropore formation in p-type silicon with a resistivity between 0.001 and 0.02 Ω∙cm, achieving pore sizes from 5 to 100 nm.

Peculiarities of porous silicon layers formation during electrochemical etching of p-type silicon were studied. Principal divisions of pore formation mechanisms in n-type and p-type of silicon were demonstrated.

Porous silicon layers were formed on a p-type silicon wafers by electrochemical anodisation. Dependencies of thickness and porosity of porous silicon layers as well as effective valence of silicon dissolution versus anodizing time and current density were obtained and analysed. A mathematical model for growth of layers of porous silicon was developed.

ABSTRACTThe thermal conductivity of porous silicon is measured as prepared and after oxidation. The measurement method uses thermal wave propagation in the porous film. We investigate three types of porous silicon: Nanoporous p-type silicon, nanoporous n-type silicon and mesoporous p+-type silicon. The nanoporous material shows a thermal conductivity in the region of 1.2 W/mK to 1.8 W/mK as prepared and after oxidation. This value is close to silicon oxide. The mesoporous material shows a high thermal conductivity of 80 W/mK as prepared which drops to 2.7 W/mK after oxidation.
