Broadband luminescence in defect-engineered electrochemically produced porous Si/ZnO nanostructures

Abstract The fabrication, by an all electrochemical process, of porous Si/ZnO nanostructures with engineered structural defects, leading to strong and broadband deep level emission from ZnO, is presented. Such nanostructures are fabricated by a combination of metal-assisted chemical etching of Si an...
