The recent extension of the St€ ober recipe to the synthesis of carbon particles creates tremendous opportunities in the design of novel carbon spheres having micropores, mesopores, or both, as well as composite carbon spheres with incorporated inorganic nanoparticles such as silica and silver.

Carbon spheres were obtained via the Stöber method using phenolic resin followed by carbonization. Spherical carbon-gold core-shell particles were fabricated by deposition of gold nanoparticles on the modified surface of carbon spheres.
