Notes:
A strong enhancement of the photoluminescence emitted by n-type indium phosphide (n-InP), in contact with an aqueous electrolyte, takes place under a cathodic polarization. Neither the dead-layer model nor a modification of the optical properties of the semiconductor surface can explain such a phenomenon and it is necessary to involve a large variation in the surface recombination velocity. The decrease in this velocity is due to the passivating action of hydrogen which evolves during the reduction of the water.
