Its large surface area for sensor applications and compatibility with siliconbased technologies has been the driving force for this technology development. In this study, benzene vapor detection properties of porous silicon have been investigated at room temperature. Electrical (DC) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra measurements in a controlled atmosphere (Nitrogen gas and the benzene vapor mix) were performed to test the sensor response towards the benzene vapor. It was find that PS surface very sensitive against to the vapor and electrical/optical properties changes with exposure the vapor. The experimental results suggested that PS surface is candidate a promising material for sensing the benzene vapor. Keywords: Porous silicon, benzene vapor sensing, luminescence, DC measurement INTRODUCTION Benzene is a carcinogen with a maximum permitted exposure limit in the atmosphere of 5 ppb. There is a need for an inexpensive instrument for measuring benzene concentrations, particularly in urban areas [1]. Benzene was widely used in industry as cleaning agent and solvent. Benzene vapor is carcinogen and it is hazard in urban areas as it occurs in the exhaust fumes from motor vehicle [1]. Therefore, it must be detected continuously in our living environment. The traditional methods as chromatography detecting of organic gas have costly equipment and need professional laboratory with specialized researcher [2]. it is also expensive and has long time. Therefore, we need new modern sensors cheap and capable quickly sensing of benzene vapor or other harmful gases. Semiconductor gas sensors are most attractive because they are compact, sensitive, low cost, and have low power consumption [3]. The semiconductor must have a large specific area (surface area to volume ratio) to produce a higher charge exchange rate for a high sensitivity gas detection. This can be realized in practice by using porous materials due to their large specific area [4]. High surface to volume ratio can be practically obtained by chemically etching of porous silicon in HF based solution. Therefore, PS has very high surface to volume ratio, it is a promising candidate for gas sensing. As a matter of fact, many authors have reported the modification of PL and electrical transport properties during exposure to volatile compounds [5,6]. 159
2 14 th SGEM GeoConference on Nano, Bio and Green Technologies for a Sustainable Future The objective of this study is to investigate benzene vapor sensing using porous silicon. Therefore, it was measured the DC current response and photoluminescence spectra response of PS in sensing the benzene vapor. The structure of PS layer was characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). EXPERIMENTAL The porous silicon samples were prepared from p-type Boron-doped crystal-line (c-si) silicon wafer with resistivity of 2.5 Ωcm. Before electrochemical etching, a solution of 1:24 volume ratio of 50 % HF acid and de-ionized (DI) water were used for cleaning the surface of the c-si substrate in 5 minutes. We used an aqueous HF-ethanol solution with a 25% concentration (1:3 volume ratios of 50% Hydrofluoric acid (HF) and 99.9% absolute ethanol (ETH)) for etching solution. Anodisation current density is 8.85 ma/cm 2. After electrochemical etching, the porous silicon samples were rinsed with ethanol and dried with nitrogen gas. An experimental setup was used for benzene vapor sensing as seen in figure 1. The PL quenching measurements of PS were performed in optical module and DC electrical measurements were performed electrical module. Where, nitrogen gas was used as carried of the benzene vapor. Two flow-meters from Sierra which have maximum flow 200 scc/m and 4 scc/m were used as Nitrogen gas controller. Nitrogen gas separated two lines. A line connected to a bubble bottle to obtain organic vapor-gas ( ) mix. 254 nm wave length of light from a UV lamp (Konrad Benda) was used for PL excitation. PS surface was coated with a metal interdigital-electrode (IDE) (Aluminum, 0,2g, 99,999%) used with thermal evaporation system for electrical measurements. Etching process and sensor measurements were carried out room temperature.

3 Section Micro and Nano Technologies RESULTS and DISCUSSION Surface morphology of the porous silicon was studied by scanning electron microscope as shown in Fig. 2. From the figure it was clear that there is a continuous distribution of pore sizes ranging between 1 and 3 µm. Figure 2. SEM micrographs of the PS surface. Figure 3 shows electrical response of PS sensors during exposure to various concentrate benzene vapor. It is shown from the figure that the electrical signal increases during exposure to benzene vapor and then decreases during exposure to nitrogen gas (carrier gas). This phenomenon can be described with capillary condensation of the benzene vapors in pores of the PS [7]. During exposure to benzene vapor, air in the pores of the PS is replaced with benzene vapor. Therefore, we can see electrical signal increase due to the phenomenon of the capillary condensation. Therefore, surface conductivity changes are mainly due to changes in the free electron concentration due to charge exchange between adsorbed species from the gas and the PS surface as mentioned in ref [8]. 90% Benzene Current (A) 10% Benzene 30% 50% 70% Benzene Benzene Benzene Time (s) Figure 3.

The changes of photoluminescence intensity with various concentrate benzene vapor. 162
5 Section Micro and Nano Technologies Before sensor measurements, gas was filled optic module and then taken continuous PL spectra for seeing PL stability. After the PL spectra were stabile about in one minute, benzene nitrogen mixture was filled the module and then periodically (5 min) changed this process with various benzene concentrations. Similar process was taken for electrical module. Figure 4 shows photoluminescence spectra of PS response to exposure various concentrate the benzene vapor and PL intensity changes versus benzene concentration are also shown in figure 5. It is shown from the figures change of PL intensity decrease during exposure to decreasing the benzene vapor. From the figures, it can be conclude that PL intensity depends on the concentrate of the benzene vapor and PS surface is more sensitive to benzene vapor. CONCLISIONS In this study, we explored the possibility of an electrical and optical sensor based on porous silicon. We fabricated porous silicon on silicon substrate and investigate its photo-luminescence spectra and electrical properties during exposure to various concentrated the benzene vapor. We observed that PL intensity decrease, whereas, electrical signal (current) increase during exposure to increasing benzene vapor level because of the capillary condensation of the organic vapors into the pores. The measurement results indicated that PS surface showed good vapor sensing performances to the benzene vapor. It can be conclude that PS is an ideal candidate material for fabricating high performance, selective electrical/optical vapor sensor in the future. However, we need to new scientific studies for using porous silicon as benzene sensor.
