Nanostructured Mesoporous Silica Wires with Intrawire Lamellae via Evaporation-Induced Self-Assembly in Space-Confined Channels

Figure 3

Z-contrast mode STEM images showing (a) the worm-like silica nanowires (formed in 100 nm EPC under low VER) with a hint of hexagonal pattern and ((b) and (c)) the parallel structure of silica nanowires (formed in 100 nm EPC under high VER). Note that these parallel lamellar structures have different orientation.
