We report on the fabrication of hexagonally ordered, vertically aligned silicon nanopillars (Si NP) and their characterization by means of transmission electron microscopy. Combining colloidal lithography, plasma etching, and catalytic wet etching, Si NP with well defined diameter, length, and density were obtained. The porosity of the Si NP, which seems to be decisive for their thermoelectric properties, was varied by the fabrication procedure. High resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy have been applied in order to investigate the morphology, the internal structure and the composition of the catalytically etched SiNW. The analysis yielded a single crystalline, porous structure composed of crystalline silicon and SiOx with x≤2.
