Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Biofunctional and Fluorescent Silicon Nanoparticles Using Proteins as Hydrophilic Ligands

Protective shell: A microwave‐assisted method allows rapid production of biofunctional and fluorescent silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs), which can be used for cell labeling (see picture). Such SiNPs feature excellent aqueous dispersibility, are strongly fluorescent, storable, photostable, stable at dif...

Zusammenfassung:Protective shell: A microwave‐assisted method allows rapid production of biofunctional and fluorescent silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs), which can be used for cell labeling (see picture). Such SiNPs feature excellent aqueous dispersibility, are strongly fluorescent, storable, photostable, stable at different pH values, and biocompatible. The method opens new avenues for designing multifunctional SiNPs and related silicon nanostructures.
