Silicon–silicon π single bond [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
AbstractA carbon–carbon double bond consists of a σ bond and a π bond. Recently, the concept of a π single bond, where a π bond is not accompanied by a σ bond, has been proposed in diradicals containing carbon and heteroatom radical centers. Here we report a closed-shell compound having a silicon–silicon π single bond.

The sustainable global energy economy: Hydrogen or silicon? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A sustainable global silicon energy economy is proposed as a potential alternative to the hydrogen economy. This first visualisation of a silicon energy economy is based on largescale and carbon-neutral metallic silicon production from major smelters ...

Silicon – single molecule – silicon circuits

open access: yesChemical Science, 2021
Single-molecule circuits using silicon contacts are robust, conductive, controllable, and highly reproducible in blinking experiments, with enhanced conductance in break-junctions owing to residual dangling bonds.

Spontaneous direct bonding of thick silicon nitride [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Wafers with LPCVD silicon-rich nitride layers have been successfully direct bonded to silicon-rich nitride and boron-doped silicon surfaces. A chemical - mechanical polishing treatment was necessary to reduce the surface roughness of the nitride before ...

Photoluminescence of Silicon Nanocrystals in Silicon Oxide [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nanomaterials, 2007
Recent results on the photoluminescence properties of silicon nanocrystals embedded in silicon oxide are reviewed and discussed. The attention is focused on Si nanocrystals produced by high-temperature annealing of silicon rich oxide layers deposited by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition.
