The use of porous silicon (PSi) as a sensor for detection of various analytes is reviewed. The
optical or electrical properties of PSi are key sensing parameters that have been used in …

Photonic crystals have achieved a lot of research significance due to their projected
applications. Their use as sensors is enabled due to their well-defined physical properties …

This review provides a perspective on porous silicon (pSi)–based nanomaterials including
nanoparticles, nanowires, and thin films, that are currently being used in advanced therapy …

Porous silicon has been established as an excellent sensing platform for the optical
detection of hazardous chemicals and biomolecular interactions such as DNA hybridization …

Selective transport in nanochannels (protein-based ion channels) is already used in living
systems for electrical signaling in nerves and muscles, and this natural behavior is being …

Biosensors are revolutionizing the health-care systems worldwide, permitting to survey
several diseases, even at their early stage, by using different biomolecules such as proteins …

In this work we consider the role of aperiodic order—order without periodicity—in the design
of different optical devices in one, two and three dimensions. To this end, we will first study …

We present a short review of recent progress in the field of optical gas sensors based on
porous silicon (PSi) and PSi composites, which are separate from PSi optochemical and …
