Silicon: Porous

Porous Silicon Optical and Electrical Biosensors

“…Porous silicon is a material that is extremely suitable for sensing applications. This results from its very large internal surface area per unit volume, the sensitivity of its electrical and optical properties to surface chemical bonds and pore filling, and the wide range of porosities and nanomorphologies that can be achieved [1]. In this presentation, the development of optical and electrical biosensors made of porous silicon is reported.…”
