Monodisperse porous nanodiscs with fluorescent and crystalline wall structure.
We report a facile solution process to synthesize monodisperse porous nanodiscs through confined molecular self-assembly of surfactants and ZnTPyP. The nanodiscs exhibit trimodal pores with fluorescent and crystalline wall structures, and are potentially important for sorption and separation, sensors, catalytic materials, electrode materials, etc.
