Abstract
A thorough understanding of Er-doping of porous silicon (PSi) is mandatory to improve the efficiency of PSi:Er-based devices for light emission. In this work, the voltage transient at the first stages of constant current Er doping is studied as a function of the current intensity. Two very different transient shapes are evidenced, and a correlation with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, optical reflectivity and chemical analysis, together with an interpretative model, is proposed.Items in DSpace are protected by copyright, with all rights reserved, unless otherwise indicated.
