In this work we report a first-time combination of porous silicon (pSi) particles with the
immunologic adjuvant Pam3CSK4, a TLR 1/2 agonist, as a tool for immunotherapy. pSi is a …

Silicon nanocrystals (Si‐nc) are reviewed here for their interesting optical applications. On
the one hand, they do exhibit quantum confinement effects. This allows turning silicon into a …

Porous silicon (pSi) is a sponge-like material obtained by electrochemical etching of a
crystalline silicon wafer. Due to quantum confinement effects, this material is …

Selective functionalization of the external/internal pore surface of porous silicon is of interest
for the numerous potential applications of this material, in particular in pharmacology. With …

In recent decades, biocompatible and light emitting porous silicon (pSi) showed the
possibility for use in biomedical applications. Unfortunately, until now the biological …

A functionalization strategy, consisting of a silylation reaction by acrylic acid followed by
diamine coupling, preserves and stabilizes the photoluminescence (PL) of porous silicon …

Mesoporous silicon (pSi) has several interesting features that makes it suitable for various
biomedical applications. In particular, the large surface area make it very sensitive to …

We demonstrate that the release of a poorly soluble molecule from nanoporous carriers is a
complex process that undergoes heterogeneous surface nucleation events even under …

A study on optical and structural properties of nanoporous silicon is presented in this paper.
The samples were prepared by electrochemical etching a heavily boron doped silicon wafer …

Porous silicon (pSi) is a sponge-like material that is commonly obtained through
electrochemical etching of a crystalline silicon wafer in hydrofluoric acid-based electrolyte …
