Abstract

Honeycomb porous silicon (hp-Si) has been synthesized by a low temperature (200 °C) magnesiothermic reduction of Na2SiO3·9H2O. This process can be regarded as a general synthesis method for other silicide materials. Significantly, hp-Si features excellent electrochemical properties after graphene coating.
