6. Figure 5. Structural characterizations of meso- ncSi/SiO 2. HRTEM imaging of meso-ncSi/SiO 2 processed at 900 C (A, C) and 1000 C (B, D, E) showing spherical morphology meso-ncSi/SiO 2 particles with mesopores and ncSi. Focused-ion beam prepared cross sections (F) reveal ncSi with lattice fringes of 0.31 nm throughout the spherical mesoporous particles. The additional dark spots are due to ca. 1 nm Ga droplets from the FIB processing.

9. Figure 2. A,B) Optical microscopy images of a superhydrophilic pattern (photografted with AMPS) on a superhydrophobic porous polymer. Scale bars in (A) are 500 μ m and in (B) are 2 mm. The patterns were wetted with water making the hydrophilic areas more transparent. C) Water droplets on the superhydrophobic microporous poly(butyl methacrylate- co -ethylene dimethacrylate) (left) and on the same surface after photografting with AMPS (right). D,E) Superhydrophilic patterns with different geometries and sizes fi lled with water dye solutions. F) Cross-sections of 200- μ m-wide superhydrophilic microchannels (photografted with AMPS) colored with a water solution of neutral red. Polymer films: 50- and 25- μ m- thick microporous poly(butyl methacrylate- co -ethylene dimethacrylate) films. Scale bars are 100 μ m.
