title: A pure silica chiral polymorph with helical pores.
abstract: A microporous polymorph of SiO(2), HPM-1, has a chiral structure and contains helical pores. The defect-free pure SiO(2) composition, which has been previously considered unfeasible for this structure type, bestows a high thermal and hydrothermal stability upon this material.
