Abstract
The photoluminescence and X-ray photoelectron spectra of porous silico n prepared by electrochemical etching have been studied. A correlation between photoluminescence intensity and oxidized valence states of Si has been observed. The results show that porous silicon having suboxi de states of Si exhibits very intense photoluminescence which depends on the chemical bonding. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd
