Thin Nb2O5films with tunable porosity are deposited by the sol-gel and evaporation induced self-assembly methods using organic template Pluronic PE6100 with different molar fractions with respect to NbCl5used as a precursor for synthesis of Nb sol. Surface morphology and structure of the films are studied by Transmission Electron Microscopy and Selected Area Electron Diffraction. The optical characterization of the films is carried out through reflectance spectra measurements of the films deposited on silicon substrates and theoretical modeling in order to obtain refractive index, extinction coefficient, and thickness of the films. The overall porosity of the films and the amount of adsorbed acetone vapors in the pores are quantified by means of Bruggeman effective medium approximation using already determined optical constants. The sensing properties of the samples are studied by measuring both the reflectance spectra and room-temperature photoluminescence spectra prior to and after exposure to acetone vapors and liquid, respectively. The potential of using the studied mesoporous Nb2O5films for chemooptical sensing is demonstrated and discussed.

Magneticmesoporousɣ-Fe2O3/SiO2 synthesized using an evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA) approach. The non-ionictriblock copolymer P123 was used as surfactant template with various amounts of iron oxide (1.8g-2.4g) and varied during the synthesis. Characterizations of the surface area and magnetic properties for prepared materials were done using N2-sorption analyses, and a superconducting quantum interference device interfaced with a vibrating sample magnetometer (SQUID-VSM) respectively. From this study, N2-sorption analysis indicated that most of the ɣ-Fe2O3domains of several nanometres were embedded in the silica matrix. In addition, the obtained magneticmesoporouscomposite which contains 2.3g amount ofiron oxide has revealedhigher magnetism saturation value of (4.564 emu/g) compared to other prepared samples which been evaluated by VSM analysis.

Hexagonal and cubic mesoporous TiO2 materials were synthesized via a sol-gel route modified by evaporation–induced self–assembly process with different templates. XRD and TEM results confirmed that the mesoporous films were highly organized. Furthermore, the hexagonal mesoporous TiO2 films were formed in the P123-templated films, whereas the cubic structure ones were found in the F127-templated films. Both the hexagonal and cubic mesoporous films showed photocatalytic activity in decomposing methyl orange solution under UV region, among which the cubic mesostructure presented superior potocatalytic activity because of larger surface area, more open framework and less obstructed diffusion paths of guest molecules.

The yttria-doped mesoporous zirconia was successfully synthesized by evaporation induced self-assembly (EISA) method, and the microstructure and textural properties of the as-made product were studied extensively. The results showed that the as-made product possessed crystallized framework walls and a worm-like mesopore with a narrow pore distribution. The BET specific surface area and pore volume of the as-made product calcined at 500°C are 111 m2/g and 0.16 cm3/g respectively, and the corresponding data changed to 73 m2/g and 0.052 cm3/g after calcined at 700°C, which indicated that the as-made yttria-doped mesoporous zirconia possess a higher thermal stability.
