Antireflective silicon nanostructures with hydrophobicity by metal-assisted chemical etching for solar cell applications
We present broadband antireflective silicon (Si) nanostructures with hydrophobicity using a spin-coated Ag ink and by subsequent metal-assisted chemical etching (MaCE). Improved understanding of MaCE, by conducting parametric studies on optical properties, reveals a design guideline to achieve considerably low solar-weighted reflectance (SWR) in the desired wavelength ranges. The resulting Si n...
متن کاملInvestigation of HF/H2O2 Concentration Effect on Structural and Antireflection Properties of Porous Silicon Prepared by Metal-Assisted Chemical Etching Process for Photovoltaic Applications
Porous silicon was successfully prepared using metal-assisted chemical etching method. The Effect of HF/H2O2 concentration in etching solution as an affecting parameter on the prepared porosity type and size was investigated. Field emission electron microscopy (FE-SEM) confirmed that all etched samples had porous structure and the sample which was immersed into HF/H2O2 withmolar ratio of 7/3.53...

متن کاملFabrication and Optical Characterization of Silicon Nanostructure Arrays by Laser Interference Lithography and Metal-Assisted Chemical Etching
In this paper metal-assisted chemical etching has been applied to pattern porous silicon regions and silicon nanohole arrays in submicron period simply by using positive photoresist as a mask layer. In order to define silicon nanostructures, Metal-assisted chemical etching (MaCE) was carried out with silver catalyst. Provided solution (or materiel) in combination with laser interference lithogr...
متن کاملMetal-assisted chemical etching in HFÕH2O2 produces porous silicon
A simple and effective method is presented for producing light-emitting porous silicon ~PSi!. A thin (d,10 nm! layer of Au, Pt, or Au/Pd is deposited on the ~100! Si surface prior to immersion in a solution of HF and H2O2 . Depending on the type of metal deposited and Si doping type and doping level, PSi with different morphologies and light-emitting properties is produced. PSi production occur...
