Thermal Functionalization of Hydrogen-Terminated Porous Silicon Surfaces with Terminal Alkenes and Aldehydes
TL;DR: In this paper, H-terminated porous silicon (PSi) surfaces were chemically modified with terminal alkenes and aldehydes at high temperature to yield organic monolayers covalently attached to the surface through Si-C and Si-O-C bonds.
Patent
Device made of silicon and method for collecting mammary fluid
TL;DR: A mammary fluid collection device as mentioned in this paper comprises at least one silicon storage means 12 and a contact means which when in use causes and/or allows the or one of the silicon storage meant 12 to contact at least part of a breast of a human subject.
Patent
Bioerodible silicon-based compositions for delivery of therapeutic agents
TL;DR: In this paper, a bioerodible porous silicon-based carrier material is proposed for treating or preventing conditions of a patient such as chronic diseases, where the carrier material carries at least one large molecule therapeutic agent and amorphous sugar, optionally further comprising a crystallization inhibitor.

TL;DR: In this paper, supercritical drying of ultrahigh porosity (90%) porous silicon is shown to preserve much higher mesopore volumes (up to 4mL/g) and surface areas than achievable with standard air drying.
