Abstract

The effect of monochromatic light during the anodization of porous silicon is investigated from the points of view of structural characterization and photoluminescence. A clear correlation is observed between the photoluminescence peak energy and the bandgap energy determined by the illuminating photon energy. The difference of these two energies is analyzed by a size-dependent Stokes shift.
