Advances in Porous Silicon–Based Nanomaterials for Diagnostic and Therapeutic Applications

This review provides a perspective on porous silicon (pSi)–based nanomaterials including nanoparticles, nanowires, and thin films, that are currently being used in advanced therapy, imaging, and sensing, with a focus on their effective use in future clinical settings. The achievement of both controlled geometry and architecture, and surface chemistry motifs, are presented as the two key parameters that dictate the nature of interactions with the...
