Redox-active monolayers in mesoporous silicon

Herein, redox reactions at chemically derivatized porous silicon (PSi) films are investigated. Passivation of the PSi matrix, by replacing metastable Si-H termini with nonpolar Si-C=C-R linkages, allows the electrochemical PSi device to operate in aqueous environments under oxidizing conditions (i.e...
