Abstract
The Schottky barrier height at the Au/porous silicon interface has bee n studied with ballistic electron emission microscopy (BEEM). The poro us silicon thin films were prepared by laser ablation, The barrier hei ght was found to display considerable variation across the interface. We suggest that this barrier height variation is a reflection of the l ocal bonding differences at the Au/porous Si interface. (C) 1998 Elsev ier Science B.V.
