The formation of continuous mesoporous silica films with large periodic cage and pore structures is reported here. The authors use low-cost commercially available triblock copolymers and poly(ethylene oxide) non-ionic surfactants as the structure-directing agents in conjunction with dip-coat processing. In the Figure a transmission electron microscope image of a calcined hexagonal mesoporous silica film is shown.
