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

Figure 6

Representative STEM images (Z-contrast mode) showing the structures of silica wires in 200 nm AAO under 60°C air blow drying condition: (a) parallel lamellar planes along the axis, (b) parallel-packed channels perpendicular to the wire axis, and (c) circular channels in the axial direction.
