Abstract
This article shows that an effective method to define the size of nano-objects (vacancies, vacancy, clusters, free pore volumes, cavities, and holes), and their concentration and chemical composition, is positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS). A review of the state of the art of the application of the PAS technique to probe nanostructures in porous silicon, silicon and single crystal quartz samples is presented.
