Photoelectron study of the electronic and optical properties of porous silicon

Various explanations have been proposed for the strong visible luminescence from porous silicon (PS), the most widely accepted being quantum confinement. In the quantum confinement model the bandgap of PS depends on the size of the microstructure. Double crystal x-ray diffraction on PS shows a na...
