Self-organization processes in semiconductor materials on the example of nanostructuring of por-Si at long anodic etching of p-type Si in the electrolyte with internal source of the current are shown. In conditions of a “soft” etching of the Si point defects are formed and in the subsequently occurs their spatial-temporal ordering. This leads to the ordering pores and the nanostructuring of por-Si. Self-organization mechanism of Si nanocrystallites islets is described by the effects of the elastically-deformative, defectively-deformative and capillary-fluctuation forces.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
