摘要
The surface passivation of porous silicon plays a significant role in emission efficiency of the material. Photoluminescence (PL) studies were carried out for p-type porous silicon and chlorinated porous silicon to understand the effect of surface passivation on porous silicon. Visible photoluminescence was observed at 625nm for both porous silicon and chlorinated porous silicon. The whole sample exhibits a PL band at red region and intensity decreased in chlorinated porous silicon. This paper presents an analytical solution that covers contributions from the components of silicon tetra chloride interface, silicon backbone, and voids using a serial-parallel capacitance method. Simulation study indicates that there is a good correlation between theory and observed PL.
