Abstract :
Multilayer porous silicon has been investigated due to its optical properties which can behave such as Bragg mirror, optical microcavity and Fabry-Perot interferometer. The structure of the fabricated BGW is very much relying on certain parameters during the electrochemical etching process of the bulk crystalline silicon.
