With increasingly strict environmental regulations and greater awareness of the need for
environmental protection, much attention has been given to air pollution caused by diesel …

Recent progress in syntheses of porous carbons with designed pore architecture has
rejuvenated the field of carbon chemistry and promises to provide new advanced materials …

Colloidal crystal-templating methods have been used to prepare inverse opal photonic
crystals of silica, mercaptopropyl-functionalized silica, titania, and zirconia. Ordered arrays of …

The synthesis, swelling kinetics, and optical diffraction of inverse opal hydrogel sensors (see
Figure) are demonstrated. Colloidal crystal templating is used to prepare …

This review discusses strategies for the synthesis of three-dimensionally ordered
macroporous (3DOM) solids (inverse opals) by colloidal crystal templating. Compositions of …

Solvent vapor annealing of block copolymer thin films can produce a range of morphologies
different from the equilibrium bulk morphology. By systematically varying the flow rate of two …

A glucose-sensitive inverse opal hydrogel was synthesized through photopolymerization of
2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and 3-acrylamidophenylboronic acid within the interstitial …

Three-dimensionally (3D) ordered macroporous (3DOM) MgO, γ-Al2O3, Ce0. 6Zr0. 4O2,
and Ce0. 7Zr0. 3O2 with polycrystalline mesoporous walls have been successfully …

Nanostructured metal films of platinum, gold and silver up to 675 nm thick we prepared by
electrochemical deposition through templates of 700 nm diameter polystyrene spheres …

Uniform hollow spherical rhombohedral LaMO3 and solid spherical cubic MO x (M= Mn and
Co) NPs were fabricated using the PMMA-templating strategy. Hollow spherical LaMO3 and …
