Abstract

Pointing in the right direction: Uniform mesoporosity oriented vertically to the substrate is created among γ-alumina nanowires after the conversion from a cage-type Im${{\bar 3}}$m mesostructure. Highly stable γ-alumina films with vertical mesoporosity (see picture) are useful in a wide range of applications, such as highly sensitive sensors and highly reactive catalyst supports.
