Heterogeneous reduction of carbon dioxide by hydride-terminated silicon nanocrystals

Abstract Silicon constitutes 28% of the earth’s mass. Its high abundance, lack of toxicity and low cost coupled with its electrical and optical properties, make silicon unique among the semiconductors for converting sunlight into electricity. In the quest for semiconductors that can make chemicals a...
