In situ polymerization of liquid crystalline monomers within photdaligned mesoporous silica thin film
Photopolymerization of liquid crystalline monomers was achieved within photoaligned mesoporous silica film. After resolving the template of silica networks, bundles of nanofibers containing polymer chains with a narrow molecular weight distribution were obtained.
