Abstract :
Macroporous silicon with well defined pattern on p-type silicon has been prepared by anodization in this report. A phosphorus diffusion step is employed for the formation of three dimensional pn junction structures. The I-V and C-V have been performed to characterize the "high aspect ratio" pn junction structure. Results have indicated the possibility for such a structure as the radiation conversion chip for future portable nuclear power cell
