Abstract

Photoluminescence and excitation spectra measurements as well as SIMS and FTIR techniques were used to investigate the photoluminescence excitation mechanism of porous silicon. It is shown that there are two types of photoluminescence excitation spectra which consist either of two, visible and ultraviolet, or one, only ultraviolet, bands. The dependence of photoluminescence excitation spectra upon the various treatment (aging in vacuum, in air and in liquids) indicates that the excitation in the visible range occurs via light absorption of some species on the porous Si surface.
