We use metal-assisted chemical etching (MCE) method to fabricate nanostructured black silicon on the surface of C-Si. The Si-PIN photoelectronic detector based on this type of black silicon shows excellent device performance with a responsivity of 0.57 A/W at 1060 nm. Silicon nanocone arrays can be created using MCE treatment. These modified surfaces show higher light absorptance in the near-infrared range (800 to 2500 nm) compared to that of C-Si with polished surfaces, and the variations in the absorption spectra of the nanostructured black silicon with different etching processes are obtained. The maximum light absorptance increases significantly up to 95 % in the wavelength range of 400 to 2500 nm. Our recent novel results clearly indicate that nanostructured black silicon made by MCE has potential application in near-infrared photoelectronic detectors.
我们使用金属辅助化学蚀刻(MCE)方法在 C-Si 表面制造纳米结构的黑硅。基于这种黑硅的 Si-PIN 光电探测器表现出优异的器件性能,在 1060nm 处的响应率为 0.57A/W。MCE 处理可以制造硅纳米锥阵列。与经过抛光的 C-Si 相比,这些经过修饰的表面在近红外区域(800 至 2500nm)的光吸收率更高,并且获得了具有不同蚀刻工艺的纳米结构黑硅的吸收光谱的变化。在 400 至 2500nm 的波长范围内,最大光吸收率显著增加至 95%。我们最近的新结果清楚地表明,MCE 制造的纳米结构黑硅在近红外光电探测器中有潜在的应用。
