Abstract: | Nanoscale pores are fabricated on the surface of silicon by simple metal-assisted etching process. The resistance of nanostructured silicon depends obviously on temperature. The temperature coefficient of resistance is ?2.835 %/°C, which is as large as that of some heat sensitive materials, for instance vanadium oxide, amorphous silicon, used for uncooled infrared (IR) detectors. Considering with the enhanced near-IR absorption of nanostructured silicon, it is demonstrated that nanostructured silicon can be a promising heat sensitive material for uncooled IR detection. The sheet carrier concentration is slightly reduced, whereas carrier mobility is drastically decreased from 367.5 to 273.7 cm2 V?1 s?1 after nanostructuring process. |
