Abstract
An investigation is made of the diffusion of boron and phosphorus impurities in macroporous silicon with a regular structure of deep cylindrical pores, for which through doping of the walls was achieved. The ∼150 μm layers obtained were quasiuniformly doped and had a planar diffusion front, and their electric parameters were very similar to those of the doped single crystal. It is demonstrated that deep diffusion of phosphorus may be used to fabricate n-n + structures.
