This document discusses the fabrication of porous silicon samples at different current densities and their characterization and application in sensing. Porous silicon was fabricated by anodizing silicon wafers in HF and DMF solutions at current densities ranging from 10 to 50 mA/cm2. SEM images showed that pore size increased with higher current density. Photoluminescence and Raman spectroscopy indicated shifts related to quantum confinement effects. Different functional groups were detected using FTIR. The porous silicon samples showed sensitivity to ethanol vapors for capacitive sensing applications. Future work is proposed to further optimize the porous silicon for vapor sensing.
