摘要:Functionalization of silicon has become an
interesting research topic due to the excellent combination of
properties of functionalized Silicon that could be used in many
applications, e.g. in energy conversion based on its good
thermoelectric properties. One type of functionalized silicon is
its nanoporous form that can be produced by subtractive or
additive manufacturing at the nanoscale. However, due to the
high cost, the search for cost efficient technologies is currently
under way. One promising route is offered by Metallothermic
Reduction Reaction (MRR) from silica. Here we report the
characterization of nanoporous Silicon produced from
diatomite earth via Magnesiothermic Reduction Reaction. The
methods used include Raman Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron
Microscopy and X-ray Diffraction.
