摘要: Abstract We have measured I–V and C–V characteristics, the temperature dependence of dark currents, thermally stimulated depolarisation currents on fresh stored samples photoluminescent porous silicon. By storage in ambient, low rectifying curves become strong rectifying, MIS-like. I–T characteristics for only one activation energy, 0.49–0.55 eV range. After storage, a slightly modified value, about 0.50–0.60 is observed at temperatures only. At 280 K, energy suddenly changes to 1.20–1.80 eV. Also, both number positions maxima change by storage. The annealing 50°C induces small reversible irreversible ones samples. A simplified quantum confinement model proposed explain main aspects electrical behaviour silicon films. surface and/or interface contributions are especially currents. induced attributed oxidation process internal
