There is a rapidly growing interest in the surface chemistry of the group (IV) semiconductors,
silicon and germanium, not only for the many technological applications presently in use …

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 article, we report the functionalization of alkyne-terminated alkyl monolayers on Si
(100) using “click” chemistry, specifically, the Cu (I)-catalyzed Huisgen 1, 3-dipolar …

The ultimate goal in molecular electronics is to use individual molecules as the active
electronic component of a real-world sturdy device. For this concept to become reality, it will …

A very mild method was developed for the attachment of high-quality organic monolayers on
crystalline silicon surfaces. By using visible light sources, from 447 to 658 nm, a variety of 1 …

The capture reaction 14N (p, γ) 15O has been investigated in the energy range Ep= 0.2 to
3.6 MeV with the use of windowless gas targets as well as implanted 14N solid targets of …

Silicon nanowires are attractive materials from the point of view of their electrical properties
or high surface-to-volume ratio, which makes them interesting for sensing applications …

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 …

Here we report on the functionalization of alkyne-terminated alkyl monolayers on highly
doped Si (100) using “click” reactions to immobilize ferrocene derivatives. The reaction of …

Silicon is by far the most important semiconductor material in the microelectronic industry
mostly due to the high quality of the Si/SiO2 interface. Consequently, applications requiring …
