To achieve this, a thin Ag film was deposited on an n-type (100) silicon substrate to form agglomerated Ag particles and MacEtch was performed to obtain vertically aligned etching holes on Si substrate. Subsequently, anisotropic wet etching was conducted and the etchant would penetrate the porous structure to form inverted pyramidal cavities on the dendrite-like structure. Using this two-step etching, excellent anti-reflection behavior was obtained for our textured substrates. ? 2018 The AuthorsAnisotropic wet etchingAnti-reflectionMetal-assisted chemical etchingTextured substrate[SDGs]SDG7journal article10.1016/j.rinp.2018.11.051https://www2.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85057298483&doi=10.1016%2fj.rinp.2018.11.051&partnerID=40&md5=0159eef9bf592315ec35c69bc71600162-s2.0-85057298483https://www2.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85057298483&doi=10.1016%2fj.rinp.2018.11.051&partnerID=40&md5=0159eef9bf592315ec35c69bc7160016
