Abstract
The functionalization of silicon as elemental crystalline wafer, nanoporous layers, or nanocrystalline particles with DNA oligonucleotides using automated solid phase synthesis is described. The procedures provide semiconductor surfaces covalently modified with oligomers suitable for capturing complementary oligonucleotide strands.
