摘要
The diffusion of a counter dopant has been done in porous silicon. The p+n and n+p junctions formed give a sharp peak in photoluminescence instead of a broad peak. We report the first operation of bright light emitting p-n junctions in porous silicon, at low voltage and current. The diffusion makes the resistance of the porous layer very low, which provides the possibility of making many devices.
