Abstract

ABSTRACTWe have fabricated two kinds of n-type microcrystalline silicon carbon (μc-SiC) / porous silicon (PS) / p-type crystalline silicon (c-Si) pn junctions and demonstrated a visible light emission from them. We have observed three types of visible light emission; an uniform red light emission at a forward current above 12mA/cm2 for the pn junction using a 0.2–0.4 Qcm c-Si substrate, and a very weak white light emission at a forward current of about 90 mA/mm2 and a strong orange-red light emission at a forward current from 200 to 619 mA/mm2for the pn junction using a 3.5–4.5 Ωcm c-Si substrate.
