Abstract

Extremely thick macroporous silicon layers were fabricated from n-type silicon (100) wafers by electrochemical etching in ethanoic solution of hydrofluoric acid. At constant anodization time and electrolytic concentration the effects of current density variation on porous silicon formation were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence (PL).
