Novel Inorganic Nanostructures Fabricated using Polymeric Supports and Templates for Environmental and Catalytic Applications

纳米模板技术的灵活性和多功能性将被用来制备性能可控的新型多孔无机结构。其中包括可裁剪的表面积、孔大小和结构、颗粒大小和组成。这些性质的影响将在各种应用中进行研究，包括光催化分解污染物，模板技术引入的控制无机材料形态结构的能力将导致效率的提高。这些纳米结构还将被考虑用于太阳能电池，这是一种目前在全球范围内受到广泛关注的替代能源。

The flexibility and versatility of nanotemplating processes will be exploited to fabricate novel porous inorganic structures with controllable properties. These include tailorable surface area, pore size and structure, particle size and composition. The influence of such properties will be studied in various applications, including the photocatalytic decomposition of pollutants, where the ability to control the morphological structure of the inorganic materials introduced by the templating technique will lead to enhanced efficiencies. These nanostructures will also be considered for use in solar cells, an alternative energy source that is currently receiving copious attention worldwide.
