This paper reports the surface electronic structure of light-emitting porous polycrystalline silicon (PPS) using Xray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). We find that the PPS films with strong photoluminescence (PL) effect can only be observed in thin film wiht trace amount of silicon nanoclusters and the luminescence can be enhanced remarkably wiht proper passivation of the PPS surface. Incomplete oxidat ion of silicon (Si~3+ or Si~2+) does not lead to visible PL.We further estimate that the average size of silicon nanoclusters is in the range of 20-30 A in th esample having PL emission.

Electrical characteristics of ultra-shallow (～90nm) n~+ p junctions fabricated using plasma immersion implantation of arsenic ions are investigated. With the arsenic source, a more uniform doping profile was obtained. In addition, both forward and reverse current-voltage (IV) characteristics at ooperation temperature ranging from 100 to 450 K were measured. Results show that the ideality factor varies form unity to two indicating both diffusion and generation-recombination (GR) processes are important in these devices. The ideality factor is found to fluctuate with the tempoerature due ot discrete trap centers in the junction. Annealing has profound effect on the reverse diode characteristics. For fully activated sample, the IV relationship in the reverse region essentially follows a power law, i.e.I∝ V~m. The power index (m) is aobut 3 and almost remains unchanged at different temperatures.
