Abstract:This Communication describes a facile strategy coupling block copolymer-directed self-assembly with high-power Joule heating to form highly crystalline and long-range ordered mesoporous oxide and carbon nanostructures in just a few seconds. The combined approach is compatible with various self-assembled hybrid systems, generating mesoporous composites of γ-Al2O3-carbon, γ-Al2O3/MgO-carbon and anatase-TiO2-carbon with p6mm symmetry, as well as mesoporous non-close-packed carbon structures. Removing the polymer/… Show more
