Enhancement of the production yield of fluorescent silicon nanostructures using silicon-based salts

The increase in the amount of extracted silicon nanostructures resulting from the incorporation of sodium metasilicon salt in the etching solution was investigated. Silicon nanostructures were prepared in the form of thin fluorescent films via anodisation etching of silicon wafers in aqueous HF/H2O2...
