Mimicking nature's hierarchical genius, for the first time, strictly ordered hierarchical pores (micro→meso→macro) and hierarchical chemical compositions are realized within a single metal–organic framework crystal. This multivariate hierarchy, achieved via nanoemulsion synthesis, dramatically boosts charge transfer and photocatalytic H2 production. In Research Article (e8973821), Yang Wang, Dongping Duan, and co-workers establish a new paradigm for bio-inspired materials with life-like efficiency.
Wang et al. (Mon,) studied this question.
