A metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) photoconductor and a p-n photodiode
have been fabricated from rapid-thermal-oxidized (RTO) porous Si. The
MSM photoconductor achieved 2.8 X higher responsivity at 350 nm than a
UV-enhanced Si photodiode, and the RTO photodiode exhibited an extern
al quantum efficiency of 75% at 740 nm.
