Ordered mesoporous materials prepared by the template route have attracted increasing
interest from the electrochemists community due to their plenty of unique properties and …

Mesoporous silicas, especially those exhibiting ordered pore systems and uniform pore
diameters, have shown great potential for sensing applications in recent years …

Roughness of nanoscopic dimensions can be used to selectively enhance the faradaic
current of a sluggish reaction. Using this principle, we constructed mesoporous structures on …

Gold (Au) films with open interconnected macroporous walls and nanoparticles have been
successfully sculptured using the hydrogen bubble dynamic template synthesis followed by …

Well-ordered mesostructured silica and titania films were prepared using poly (ethylene
oxide)− poly (propylene oxide)− poly (ethylene oxide) triblock copolymer species (Pluronic …

M41S is the designation of a new type of mesoporous structures. The characteristics of these
materials are large surface areas and very narrow pore size distributions, with pore …

Metallic nickel was electrodeposited from aqueous nickel (II) acetate dissolved in the
lyotropic liquid crystalline phases of Brij 56 and Brij 78 surfactant templates to form metal …

Various nanoscale semiconducting superlattices have been generated by direct templating
in a lyotropic organic liquid crystal. These include superlattices of CdS, CdSe, and ZnS …

Nanocasting, the 3D-transformation of self-assembled organic nanostructures into hollow
inorganic replicas under preservation of fine structural details has recently turned out to be a …

This review introduces and summarizes lyotropic liquid crystal (LLC) directed syntheses of
nanostructured materials consisting of porous nanostructures and zero-dimensional (0-D) …
