Abstract

The optoelectronic properties of porous Si (PS) are presented in terms of electroluminescence (EL), photoluminescence (PL), photoconduction (PC), and optical absorption. Observations of injection-type EL, efficient PL, band-gap widening, and photosensitivities In the visible region are consistent with the quantum size effect model in PS.
