This article reviews the approaches developed to prepare and characterize porous
structured materials by using the breath figures (BF) methodology. In particular, we have …

A breath figure (BF) is the water droplet array that forms when moisture comes in contact
with a cold substrate. This water droplet array has been widely utilized in the past two …

This feature article describes the multiple interfaces in the breath figure (BF) method toward
functional honeycomb films with ordered pores. If a drop of polymer solution in a volatile …

White light-emitting diodes (white LEDs) have recently attracted substantial interest owing to
their remarkable energy conservation. The evolution of fluorescent nanomaterials with …

The hollow magnetic hydroxyapatite [Ca10 (PO4) 6 (OH) 2, HAp] microspheres with
hierarchically mesoporous structures were hydrothermally fabricated using the similar …

We report the synthesis and characterization of a series of hydroxyl-end-functionalized
polystyrenes (PS–OH) and the formation of patterned porous films. The polymers were …

Herein, a facile method for the preparation of organometal halide perovskite (OHP) thin films
in photonic crystal morphology is presented. The OHP photonic crystal thin films with …

Consider formation of breath-figures inspired patterns obtained with rapidly evaporated
polymer solutions [1–3]. Main physical processes involved in the process are (1) …

Honeycomb porous films prepared by the breath figure method show great potential in fields
such as templating, separation, microanalysis, and superhydrophobic materials. This …
