The resulting materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and nitrogen adsorption ,neasurenlents. The obtained mesoporous ZrO2 thin film has a nanocrystalline inorganic framework (tetragonal zirconia) and narrowly distributed mcsopore size (6. 7 nm in diameter].展开更多
