Journal ArticleDOI
Porous silicon formation: A quantum wire effect
Volker Lehmann,Ulrich Gösele +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a two-dimensional quantum confinement (quantum wire) in the very narrow walls between the pores not only explains the change in band gap energy but also may also explain the dissolution mechanism that leads to porous silicon formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Physics of Macropore Formation in Low‐Doped p‐Type Silicon
Volker Lehmann,S. Ronnebeck +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the pore walls in hydrofluoric acid are caused by a depletion of holes due to the n-type doping of the substrate, and the dimensions of the pores are estimated based on these findings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Formation Mechanism and Properties of Electrochemically Etched Trenches in n‐Type Silicon
Volker Lehmann,Helmut Föll +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the spontaneous trench formation in n-type silicon immersed in hydrofluoric acid under anodic bias is demonstrated and the resulting microstructures are characterized and explained by a model which takes into account the conditions of the space charge region the minority carrier current and the crystal orientation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid‐thermal‐oxidized porous Si−The superior photoluminescent Si
TL;DR: To improve the stability of porous Si (PS) prepared by electrochemical etching, the authors make use of rapid-thermal oxidation (RTO), which replaces hydride coverage of the internal surfaces of the pores with a high-quality oxide while retaining nm-sized Si grains.
