Abstract | Electrochemical oxidation of porous silicon (PSi) produces a surface that is covered with native silicon–hydrogen (Si–Hx) bonds and regions with oxidized Si–Si back-bonds (OSi–Hx). Such anodically oxidized PSi layers were chemically modified using 1-decene under thermal conditions. The hydrosilylation reaction consumes mainly the nonoxidized Si–Hx bonds and yields a surface with oxidized and alkylated regions that were characterized using transmission IR and Raman spectroscopies. The brightest photoluminescence (PL) was obtained when the PSi sample was anodized in 1 M sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) at 3 mA/cm² for 5 min. The chemical process preserves the PL and the physical properties of the porous layer. The derivatized PSi surfaces are stable in boiling CCl4 and in water. |
