Electrografting refers to the electrochemical reaction that permits organic layers to be
attached to solid conducting substrates. This definition can be extended to reactions …

2.1 Background There is already a wealth of information on the wet chemical cleaning of Si
for semiconductor processing,(14, 15) but there is less on subsequent modification methods …

Conspectus The chemical, electronic, and structural properties of surfaces are affected by
the chemical termination of the surface. Two-step halogenation/alkylation of silicon provides …

As the cornerstone of multiple practical applications, silicon single crystal surfaces have
attracted the interest of scientific and engineering communities for several decades. The …

As an alternative to standard silicon biofunctionalization protocol based on alkoxysilanes
that bind to SiO2 on oxidized silicon substrates, several protocols to form bifunctional …

Ethynyl-and propynyl-terminated Si (111) surfaces synthesized using a two-step
halogenation/alkylation method have been characterized by transmission infrared …

We used the ReaxFF reactive molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the chemical
mechanisms and kinetics of thermal decomposition processes of silicon surfaces grafted …

The addition of Grignard reagents to ketones is a well‐established textbook reaction.
However, a comprehensive understanding of its mechanism has only recently begun to …

The hydrogenated silicon surface has outstanding electronic properties. However, its
resistance to oxidation is insufficient. An alternative is the substitution of the SiH bonds with …

The electrochemical oxidation of ferrocenes having an H-or Li-terminated ethynyl group has
been studied, especially as it relates to their covalent anchoring to carbon surfaces. The …
