Abstract

Three-dimensional ordered mesoporous polymer (OMP) single-crystals were synthesized for the first time via a simple soft-template strategy. Ordered mesoporous nitrogen-doped carbon (OMNC) was obtained through carbonization of OMP and post ammonia activation. The evolution of specific surface area, pore volume, and nitrogen content, and species of OMNC were systematically investigated by adjusting the activation temperature and time.
