Ma. Popescu et al., AMORPHOUS PHASE IN ELECTROCHEMICALLY OXIDIZED POROUS SILICON, Philosophical magazine. A. Physics of condensed matter. Structure, defects and mechanical properties, 73(6), 1996, pp. 1725-1731
An amorphous phase has been demonstrated in porous silicon prepared by
anodization of silicon wafers. The radial distribution function has b
een calculated on the basis of the X-ray diffraction pattern recorded
from a typical sample. There was revealed an amorphous phase of compos
ition SiO1.6.
