One-pot route to produce hierarchically porous titania thin films by controlled self-assembly, swelling, and phase separation

Expanding mesopore size beyond a 10 nm diameter is a big challenge for developing applications based on mesostructured-mesoporous thin films, especially in nanobiotechnology. This triggers the need of new multipore materials produced by reproducible soft chemistry routes. We present here a novel and...
