| Abstract | ||
| Porous silicon was fabricated at p-n junction wafer by photoelectrochemical (PEC) etching. Silicon wafer with various electrolyte containing different HF concentrations was used to explain PS formation by the reaction at the Si/ electrolyte interface. An investigation of the dependence on HF concentration to formed PS layer was made. The surface morphology of PS layer was study as a function of HF concentration. Pillar like structures are formed at low HF concentration and pores structures are obtained a at higher HF concentration (40%). The etching rate increases with increasing HF concentration causing faster silicon dissolution. Thus the total pillar volume would increase by increasing the HF concentration. | ||
