Abstract
Light-emitting porous silicon layers prepared on two types of boron-doped p and p+-Si substrates were studied by Raman spectroscopy in a broad frequency range (0–1100 cm−1). Standard phonon confinement model supported by new results from low-frequency scattering permit us to estimate consistently the characteristic dimensions of nanometric crystallites in porous silicon, without invoking complex size distribution. A sizable fraction of a highly disordered (a-Si) phase in the p-type samples is detected, and there is no clear spectral evidence of other Si-based compounds.
