This new material consists of almost perfectly spherical silicon micro- and nanoparticles with a very smooth surface. They are able to trap light very efficiently in a large-span frequency range covering the visible to the far infrared regions. Silicon colloids can be thought of as a completely new material for scientific and technological purposes, with manifold applications covering electronics, photonics, cosmetics, or paints, among others. Here, we report on the synthesis of polycrystalline, amorphous, and porous silicon colloids, as well as their optical properties, some applications concerning light filters, and photonic bonding.Reserva de todos los derechosArtículo10.1063/1.3581880Cerrado
