Time resolved in situ GISAXS Experiment of Evaporation Induced Self-assembly of CTAB Templated Silica Thin Films under Controlled Humidity
Journal Article

· International Journal of Nanoscience (IJN)
The influence of controlled humidity on the phase transformation of CTAB templated silica thin films is studied by time-resolved in situ GISAXS measurements. It is shown that during a short period of time the silica matrix is flexible enough to follow the morphologic changes of the cylindrical micelles into spherical ones. During this time water can be uptaken and outtaken from the film. The evolution of the lattice parameters upon cycling dry and humid air is presented and discussed.
