摘要
We carried out comprehensive steady-state and time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) studies to elucidate the origin of luminescence from a porous Si nanowire array prepared by metal-assisted chemical etching. We provide evidence for the defect nature of the PL, and ascribe it to donor-acceptor pair recombination. A schematic energy-level diagram is proposed to interpret the overall PL features.
