Abstract
We have studied the electrophysical properties of porous silicon p-n j unction in an atmosphere of various gases: moisture, ammonia, benzene, acetone, and ethanol, The high sensitivity of ac conductivity to the polar gas molecules is connected with an additional pathway through th e opened surface of the p-n junction.
