Abstract

The surface region of the CdS/por-Si/p-Si heterostructure in which the porous layer was formed by metal-assisted etching of the single-crystal p-Si substrate is studied by scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy methods. Experimental results of the CdS film morphology study are processed using two-dimensional detrended fluctuation analysis and average mutual information methods. It is shown that the porous layer has a significant effect on structural features of the CdS film.
