“…For example, TiC ceramic was produced by infiltrating tetrabutyl titanate sol into wood template in our group. The sol was first thermally decomposed into TiO2, and then converted to TiC by reacting with the carbon cellular wall 2,3) . Fig.…”

“…By now, a large number of biotissues have been utilized to fabricate inorganic semiconducting materials. Leaves [1], beetles [2], silk [3], wood [4], butterflies [5], and even hairs of dogs and humans [6] have been utilized as templates for the fabrication of nanomaterials. These nanostructure replicas have exhibited outstanding performances in many different areas.…”

SiO 2 and ZnO inverse structure replicas have been synthesized using butterfly wings as templates. The laser diffraction performance of the SiO 2 inverse structure replica was investigated and it was found that the zero-order light spot split into a matrix pattern when the distance between the screen and the sample was increased. This unique diffraction phenomenon is closely related to the structure of the SiO 2 inverse structure replica. On the other hand, by analyzing the photoluminescence spectrum of the ZnO replica, optical anisotropy in the ultraviolet band was demonstrated for this material.

“…This gives rise to a porous carbon with the morphology derived from its wood template. [6][7][8][9][10] As an example, Figure 1 shows the microstructure of porous carbon obtained by carbonizing the wood of the lauan. The channel-structure of the wood was not damaged and was retained still in porous carbon perfectly.…”

Wood is a natural material with a rational and aesthetic structure. Recently, we have succeeded in using wood as a template to produce Al/C and Al/(SiC+C) composites. Porous carbon was first pyrolyzed from the wood template. The final composites were then obtained by injecting aluminum alloy and silicone resin into the porous carbon. The microstructures, thermal expansions, and mechanical properties of these products were then analyzed. The results indicated that the structures of the composites are controlled by the natural structure of wood. Moreover, the composites exhibit a lower coefficient of thermal expansion than aluminum and are stronger than the porous carbon.
