title: Covalent crosslinking of 1-D photonic crystals of microporous Si by hydrosilylation and ring-opening metathesis polymerization.
abstract: Free-standing porous Si multilayer dielectric mirrors, prepared by electrochemical etching of crystalline Si, are treated with a ruthenium ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) catalyst followed by norbornene to produce flexible, stable composite materials in which poly(norbornene) is covalently attached to the porous Si matrix.
