Abstract
Porous silicon (por-Si) is discussed as a photosensitizer of the generation of highly reactive molecular oxygen, i.e. singlet oxygen. Photoluminescence and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy give information on the photosensitization mechanism and efficiency. The experimental data demonstrate promising properties of por-Si as a photosensitizer of singlet oxygen generation for biomedical applications.
