摘要: Abstract The systematic change in the shape of photoluminescence (PL) spectra with growth parameters for self-supporting porous silicon (PS) and PS layer on Si substrate has been observed mathematically analysed. PL behaviour is attributed to quantum size effect concentration dots wires. It found that layers consists columns only. For grown substrate, was increase a decrease electrolyte. mean diameter crystallites ranged from 20–30 A hence variation confinement energy 0.55 0.95 eV. more than substrate. variance formed during anodisation, calculated separately
