Selective partial oxidation of methane to methanol suffers from low efficiency. Here, we
report a heterogeneous catalyst system for enhanced methanol productivity in methane …

Porous Si exhibits a number of properties that make it an attractive material for controlled
drug delivery applications: The electrochemical synthesis allows construction of tailored …

Hydrosilylation reactions, the (commonly) anti-Markovnikov additions of silanes to
unsaturated bonds present in compounds such as alkenes and alkynes, offer numerous …

Bio‐and chemical sensing, biomaterials, and in vivo electronics are some of the latest
advances for porous silicon (p‐Si) discussed in this review. p‐Si is extremely versatile owing …

Organic functionalization of non-oxidized silicon surfaces, while allowing for robust chemical
passivation of the inorganic substrate, is intended and expected to broaden the chemical …

In this review the grafting of polymer chains to solid supports or interfaces and the
subsequent impact on colloidal properties is examined. We start by examining theoretical …

Molecular electronics describes the field in which molecules are utilized as the active
(switching, sensing, etc.) or passive (current rectifiers, surface passivants) elements in …

Hydrogen-terminated Si (111) surfaces are modified by attachment of oligodeoxynucleotides
and characterized with respect to DNA surface density, chemical stability, and DNA …
