Abstract :
Sharp luminescence at 1.54 μm from erbium doped porous silicon has been observed. The silicon was made porous after implantation of high doses of erbium and oxygen into p-type Czochralski silicon. The erbium related luminescence from porous silicon is an order of magnitude more intense than that from erbium doped single crystal silicon
