Nitrogen-doped mesoporous carbons have been controllably synthesized through a solvent evaporation induced self-assembly method. The carbons show 70% of the capacitor retained at current density of 50 A g−1 and no capacitance loss over 5000 cycles.

ABSTRACTIntermediate structures were trapped during the mesophase transition from lamellae to higher curvature structures in a sol-gel matrix. The target structures included normal hexagonally arranged cylinders and/or normal spheres in a cubic array distributed in a hydrophilic matrix. The present system is believed to be the first to trap these intermediates. Through solvent evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA), mesostructured silica/diblock films with large characteristic length scales were prepared. The structure-directing agents were polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene oxide) (PS-b-PEO) diblock copolymers with high molecular weight, which are water insoluble and alcohol insoluble. We believe that no micellization took place in the present system; a disorder-to-order transition occurred due to the cooperative self- assembly of the diblock and silicates as the solvent preferentially evaporated from a film cast from a dilute homogeneous solution. During further preferential evaporation, the morphogenic effect of the increase of species concentration facilitates the mesophase development in the direction of a normal cubic to hexagonal to lamellar pathway. However, the morphogenic effects of both the decrease of the PS coil dimension and the siloxane condensation drive the mesophase development in opposite directions. The decrease of the PS coil dimension plays an important role in the present self-assembly process. Trapping of the intermediates and coexisting multiple mesophases are related to the facts that PS has high Tg and high hydrophobicity in particular, as well as to the fact that polymers have relatively low mobility in general.
