The synthesis of complex and hybrid oxide microstructures
is of fundamental interest and practical applications.
However, the design and synthesis of such structures is
a challenging task. A solution-phase process to synthesize
complex silica and silica–titania hybrid microstructures was
developed by exploiting the emulsion-droplet-based step-bystep
growth featuring shape control. The strategy is robust and
can be extended to the preparation of complex hybrid
structures consisting of two or more materials, with each
having its own shape.
