✦ Synopsis

Continuous mesoporous carbon thin films (see Figure) have been synthesized through direct carbonization of sucrose/silica nanocomposite films and subsequent removal of the silica to create a mesoporous carbon network. This method provides a simple and efficient method to synthesize continuous, high surface area and pore volume mesoporous carbon thin films with uniform‐sized and interconnected pore channels.
