Abstract Nanomaterials have large specific surface area and exhibit different properties from bulk materials. In this paper, the experiments demonstrate that the hydrogen terminated silicon nanowires can accelerate the oxidation rate of copper. This process may be explained by the surface doping effect. Surface doping is a phenomenon of chemical property changes caused by size decrease of materials, which we hope may find wide applications in various fields of chemistry.
