Abstract
An investigation was made of the electroluminescence emitted by porous silicon when in contact with certain solutions. The electroluminescen ce was observed at the boundary between porous n-type silicon and stro ng oxidants characterized by a two-stage mechanism of electron capture , such as hydrogen peroxide. The integral quantum efficiency of 0.3% w as-according to the authors' knowledge-a record value for the electrol uminescence of porous silicon.
