Visible electroluminescence with a peak wavelength of 6300 Å is observed from forward‐biased porous Si p‐n diodes with conducting polymer contacts. These devices have brighter electroluminescence than similar devices with thin, gold‐film contacts. Electroluminescence is also observed from conducting polymer/n‐porous Si diodes.
