TL;DR
A new synthetic approach where highly ordered porous templates are not simply inert shape-defining molds but also chemical reagents for the oxidation or reduction of tin(ii) selenide is reported on.
Abstract
Three in one: Ordered nanostructures of SnSe, SnO2, and elemental tin (see SEM image) were prepared by template-assisted synthesis in porous alumina and macroporous silicon. The use of the templates as chemical reactants allowed the preparation of all three target materials from the same single-source precursor, Sn(SePh)4.
