DNA Optical Detection Based on Porous Silicon Technology: from Biosensors to Biochips

A photochemical functionalization process which passivates the porous silicon surface of optical biosensors has been optimized as a function of the thickness and the porosity of the devices. The surface modification has been characterized by contact angle measurements. Fluorescence measurements have...
