Abstract (English): We report a study investigating the heat-transport capacity of porous n-type silicon samples by examining their effective thermal diffusivity. The effective thermal diffusivity was measured using frequency-domain photoacoustic techniques with a two-layer model that analyzes the thermal resistance of a bilayer system. Porosity was determined through gravimetric methods. The results reveal an almost linear increase in porosity with anodizing time, accompanied by a much greater increase in the thickness of the porous layer. Additionally, we observed a pronounced decrease in effective thermal diffusivity as both porosity and porous layer thickness increased. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Portuguese): Reportamos un estudio de la capacidad de transporte de calor de muestras de silicio poroso tipo n a través de un estudio de la difusividad térmica efectiva en este material. Los valores medidos de la difusividad térmica efectiva se obtienen mediante la técnica fotoacústica en el dominio de la frecuencia utilizando un modelo de dos capas que se basa en el análisis de la resistencia térmica efectiva de un sistema bicapa, y de la aplicación de la técnica de gravimetría para la determinación de la porosidad. Los resultados muestran un incremento casi lineal de la porosidad con el tiempo de anodización, así como de un incremento mucho mayor del espesor de la capa porosa con el tiempo de anodización. Asimismo, se obtiene un decremento significativo de la difusividad térmica efectiva en dependencia con la porosidad y el espesor de la capa porosa. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
