title: Monocrystalline mesoporous metal oxide with perovskite structure: a facile solid-state transformation of a coordination polymer.
abstract: Monocrystalline mesoporous BiFeO3 crystals were obtained via a multi-step single-crystal to single-crystal transformation of a coordination polymer, Bi[Fe(CN)6]·4H2O. This unique transformation process significantly decreased the crystallization temperature of perovskite oxide without losing high crystallinity.
