Abstract

The crystallinity of four typical types of porous silicon was systematically studied by both transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and XRD. Based on results, Si epitaxy on porous silicon was further investigated. The microstructure, crystallinity, surface topography, and electric properties of the epitaxial layer were characterized. Results show that preoxidation can prevent boron diffusion during the growth process.
