Abstract

Hybridization produces the better: Colloidal hollow periodic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (HPMO NPs) with tunable compositions and highly hybridized nanostructures are successfully synthesized by a simple, easily scale-up but versatile silica-etching chemistry (alkaline or HF etching) for their applications in nano-fabrication and nano-medicine.
