Hierarchically ordered mesocellular mesoporous silicas (HMMS) were swiftly synthesized using P123 and sodium silicate as a silica source within an hour by applying microwave irradiation without pore expander. The XRD, TEM and BET studies demonstrated that materials as-synthesized and calcined have the hierarchically ordered mesocellular structure with two different sizes about 10 nm and 30 nm pores having a minimized micropore volume compared with conventional hydrothermal method. Moreover, the HMMS sample prepared by microwave-assisted hydrothermal method had higher surface area than that of conventional hydrothermal method. The variation of the pore size and morphology of mesocellular structure varied with the aging time.

Positron Energy

Positron annihilation gamma energy distribution, lifetime spectroscopy and time-of-flight method were used to study surfactant-templated mesoporous silica films deposited on glass. The lifetime depth profiling was correlated to Doppler broadening and 3γ annihilation fraction measurements to determine the annihilation characteristics inside the films. A set of consistent fingerprints for positronium annihilation, o-Ps reemission into vacuum, and pore size was directly determined. The lifetime measurements were performed in reflection mode with a specially designed lifetime spectrometer mounted on a slow positron beam system. The intensity of the 142 ns vacuum lifetime component was recorded as a function of the energy of the positron beam. In a film with high porosity a reemission efficiency of as high as 40 % was found at low positron energy. Positron lifetime in samples capped by a thin silica layer was used to determine the pore size. The energy of the reemitted o-Ps fraction was measured by a time-of-flight detector, mounted on the same system, allowing determination of both o-Ps re-emission efficiency and energy in the same sample. We demonstrate the potential of the simultaneous use of different positron annihilation techniques in the study of thin porous films.

Processing can be controlled to produce a family of mesoporous silica films with either disordered, lamellar, hexagonal, or cubic pore distributions[l]. These films, formed by surfactant-templated synthesis and exhibiting a unimodal pore size, promise potential use as inorganic membranes, catalysts, and optically-based sensors[l,2]. The mesoporous films can be formed from initially homogeneous silica sols by a continuous, surfactant-templated process, which relies upon solvent evaporation during the sol-gel dip-coating process. Films of 100-500 nm thick are formed within seconds in a continuous coating operation. The microstructure of the films is dependent upon the cationic surfactant concentration CTAB (CH3(CH2)15N+(CH3)3Br-) and the dip-coating rate. Several films, processed under differing conditions, were investigated by TEM to characterize pore size, structure, and orientation.Figures 1 a & b show the plan view and cross-sectional microstructure of a 2-d hexagonal mesoporous silica film deposited on silicon; the sample was calcined at 400 °C for 3 hours in air. The images were obtained on a Philips CM30 TEM, operated at 300 kV.

Mesoporous Film

The molecular aggregation states of tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum(III) (Alq) adsorbed in the transparent mesoporous silica (MPS) films with the different pore sizes (3.0 and 5.4 nm) were successfully clarified. The Alq molecules were easily incorporated into the films from the solution without the segregation on the surfaces. The adsorbed amount of Alq was controlled by changing the added amount in the initial solution to resultantly give the transparent and yellow-color films. The photoluminescence spectra significantly revealed that the state of Alq molecules in the mesopore varied depending on the adsorbed amount of Alq as well as the pore size, suggesting the characteristic mobility of the adsorbed Alq molecules in the mesopores as compared with that at the bulk or solution state. Therefore, the guest-guest interactions between Alq molecules as well as the host-guest interactions between Alq and mesopore were elucidated. This finding by the use of the mesoporous film hosts will be utilized for including luminescence species and be applicable for optical devices.
