Features of the Frequency Dependence of Capacitance–Voltage Characteristics of a Semiconductor Structure of a Photoelectric Converter Based on a p–n Junction with an Antireflective Film of Porous Silicon

Аннотация

The frequency dependence of capacitance–voltage characteristics of a semiconductor structure with an antireflective film of porous silicon, which was formed by electrochemical etching above a p–n junction, is studied. Photoluminescence spectra of layers of porous silicon of the experimental samples are also examined. It is demonstrated that the capacitance–voltage curves are shaped by competing influences of capacitances of the p–n junction and the surface structure forming in a porous Si film due to its inhomogeneity. A structural model of layers of the studied semiconductor structure and a capacitance equivalent circuit are proposed.
