Abstract

We present the results of experiments on annealing the surface layer of porous silicon by pulsed IR laser radiation. The character of laser-induced modification has been studied using IR spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. It is shown that the proposed method can be used to obtain a Si:SiO2 composite.
