Porous silicon is rapidly attracting increasing interest in the biomaterials community. This nanostructured and biodegradable material has a range of properties, making it ideal for drug delivery, cancer therapy, and tissue engineering. Porous silicon for biomedical applications provides a comprehensive review of this emerging biomaterial.Chapters in part one focus on the fundamentals and properties of porous silicon for biomedical applications including thermal properties and stabilization, photochemical and nonthermal chemical modification, protein-modified porous silicon films, and
