Abstract

Millimeter-scale mesocrystals and cross-lamellae mimicking the nanostructure of seashells were produced on a substrate through the three-dimensionally oriented assembly of c-axis-elongated calcite nanorods ∼50 nm wide and ∼500–1000 nm long by combining arrangement with evaporation-driven capillary force and alignment under an intense magnetic field.
