Cellular uptake and dynamics of unlabeled freestanding silicon nanowires
The ability to seamlessly merge electronic devices with biological systems at the cellular length scale is an exciting prospect for exploring new fundamental cell biology and in designing next-generation therapeutic devices. Semiconductor nanowires are well suited for achieving this goal because of their intrinsic size and wide range of possible configurations. However, current studies have foc...
متن کاملIntegrated freestanding single-crystal silicon nanowires: conductivity and surface treatment.
Integrated freestanding single-crystal silicon nanowires with typical dimension of 100 nm × 100 nm × 5 µm are fabricated by conventional 1:1 optical lithography and wet chemical silicon etching. The fabrication procedure can lead to wafer-scale integration of silicon nanowires in arrays. The measured electrical transport characteristics of the silicon nanowires covered with/without SiO(2) suppo...
متن کاملUnderstanding cellular internalization pathways of silicon nanowires
BACKGROUND Understanding how cells interact with nanomaterials is important for rational design of nanomaterials for nanomedicine and transforming them for clinical applications. Particularly, the mechanism for one-dimensional (1D) nanomaterials with high aspect ratios still remains unclear. RESULTS In this work, we present amine-functionalized silicon nanowires (SiNW-NH2) entering CHO-β cell...
متن کاملCellular binding and internalization of functionalized silicon nanowires.
Nanostructures with precise control of sizes and shapes, intrinsic read-out signals for tracking, and flexible surface chemistry for bioconjugation can offer an excellent system to study interaction between nanomaterials and cells. In this paper, a new nanobio system based on functionalized silicon nanowires (SiNWs) was developed. Using the intensive and intrinsic nonlinear optical signal of Si...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulations of thermal transport in thin silicon nanowires
Silicon is one of the best known materials of our age, cheap and readily available, being the basic constituent of semiconductor electronics. It would therefore be highly desirable to broaden its utilization for, e.g. renewable energy applications. Recently, it has been proposed that Silicon may be engineered to be an efficient thermoelectric material for use in solid state devices[1, 2]. Altho...
