title: The biomimetic mineralization of double-stranded and cylindrical helical BaCO(3) nanofibres.
abstract: A facile biomimetic method is reported for the synthesis of novel BaCO(3) nanofibres with double-stranded and cylindrical helical morphologies via a phosphonated block co-polymer-controlled mineralization process.
