Abstract :
Considering the real structure of porous silicon the paper proposes a modelling of the electrical resistance structure of a porous silicon layer prepared on moderately resistive pSi substrate. The interpretation of electrical measurements over the PS/Si structure considering an electrical scheme with distributed elements allows determining the shunt resistance of the heterojunction.
