In this study, an innovative rugate filter configuration porous silicon (PSi) with enhanced photoluminescence intensity was fabricated. The fabricated PSi exhibited dual optical properties with both sharp optical reflectivity and sharp photoluminescence (PL), and it was developed for use in organic vapor sensing. When the wavelength of the resonance peak from the rugate PSi filters is engineered to overlap with the emission band of the PL from the PSi quantum dots, the PL intensity is amplified, thus reducing the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the PL band from 154 nm to 22 nm. The rugate PSi filters samples were fabricated by electrochemical etching of highly doped n-type silicon under illumination. The etching solution consisted of a 1:1 volume mixture of 48% hydrofluoric acid and absolute ethanol and photoluminescent rugate PSi filter was fabricated by etching while using a periodic sinusoidal wave current with 10 cycles. The obtained samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and both reflection redshift and PL quenching were measured under exposure to organic vapors. The reflection redshift and PL quenching were both affected by the vapor pressure and dipole moment of the organic species.

ABSTRACTThis paper presents new organic vapor sensitive device using anodized porous silicon (PS). The sensor has aluminum (Al)/PS/p-Si/Al Schottky diode structure and sensitivity at room temperature in 2600 ppm acetone, methanol, 2-propanol and ethanol is about 4, 5, 10 and 40 times respectively. The sensitivity in 800–2600 ppm ethanol vapor is 2 to 40 times. The diode sensor can be converted into an Al/PS/Al resistor sensor by switching the electrical contacts, and the sensitivity is about 500 times for a humidity change of 43–75%. All sensors have response time of about 0.5 min. The sensitivity is stable with time and the PS sensor can be integrated into VLSI Si devices to form novel microelectronic systems.
