Abstract
A versatile synthetic protocol is reported that allows high concentrations of functionally active membrane proteins to be incorporated in mesostructured silica materials. Judicious selections of solvent, surfactant, silica precursor species, and synthesis conditions enable membrane proteins to be stabilized in solution and during subsequent coassembly into silica-surfactant composites with nano- and mesoscale order. This was demonstrated by using a combination of nonionic ( n-dodecyl-β-d-maltoside or Pluronic P123), lipid-like (1,2-diheptanoyl- s n-glycero-3-phosphocholine), and perfluoro-octanoate surfactants under mild acidic conditions to coassemble the light-responsive transmembrane protein proteorhodopsin at concentrations up to 15 wt % into the hydrophobic regions of worm-like mesostructured silica materials in films. Small-angle X-ray scattering, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, and transient UV-visible spectroscopy analyses established that proteorhodopsin molecules in mesostructured silica films exhibited native-like function, as well as enhanced thermal stability compared to surfactant or lipid environments. The light absorbance properties and light-activated conformational changes of proteorhodopsin guests in mesostructured silica films are consistent with those associated with the native H+-pumping mechanism of these biomolecules. The synthetic protocol is expected to be general, as demonstrated also for the incorporation of functionally active cytochrome c, a peripheral membrane protein enzyme involved in electron transport, into mesostructured silica-cationic surfactant films.

Abstract
A simple yet reliable valence bond theory was applied to ascertain the effective size and shape for the electron and hole polarons in bulk anatase TiO2 by examining the extent of polaron charge delocalization. It was found that the electron polaron is approximately 2 times as large as its hole counterpart, leading to a faster electron diffusion than hole hopping with regard to the electron-phonon coupling strength. Moreover, the oblate hole polaron exhibits a pronounced directional heterogeneity in migration, whereas the nearly spherical electron polaron tends to diffuse along all possible lattice directions. In light of the notable delocalization characteristics of both polarons, their migration should proceed in an adiabatic manner, and their rates can be calculated by the Arrhenius equation. It turns out that our calculated polaron mobilities at 300 and 1300K are both in excellent agreement with experimental values, justifying our novel approach for Holstein polaron modeling in crystalline semiconductors.

Abstract
In the present paper, we report the synthesis of bimodal mesoporous anatase TiO2 films by the EISA (Evaporation-Induced Self-Assembly) method using sol-gel chemistry combining two porogen agents, a low molecular weight ionic template and a neutral block copolymer. The surfactant template (C16mimCl) generates non-oriented worm-like pores (8 to 10 nm) which connect the regularly packed ellipsoidal mesopores (15 to 20 nm diameter) formed by an amphiphilic block copolymer of the type poly(isobutylene)-b-poly(ethylene oxide) (PIB-PEO). The surfactant template can also significantly influence the size and packing of the ellipsoidal mesopores. The mesostructural organization and mesoporosity of the films are studied by Environmental Ellipsometry-Porosimetry (EEP), Grazing-Incidence Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (GISAXS) and electron microscopy techniques. Electrochemical characterization is performed to study the permeability of the films to liquid solutions, using two types of probe moieties (K3Fe(III)(CN)6 and Ru(bpy)3(2+)) by the wall-jet technique. An optimum ratio of C16mimCl/PIB-PEO provides anatase films with a continuous bimodal mesopore structure, possessing a permeability up to two times higher than that of the mesoporous films templated by PIB-PEO only (with partially isolated mesopores). When C16mimCl is used in large quantities, up to 20% weight vs. PIB-PEO, large overall porous volume and surface area are obtained, but the mesostructure is increasingly disrupted, leading to a severe loss of permeability of the bimodal films. A dye-sensitized solar cell set-up is used with anatase films as the photoelectrode. The photosensitizer loading and the total energy conversion efficiency of the solar cells using the mesoporous films templated by an optimal ratio of the two porogen agents C16mimCl and PIB-PEO can be substantially increased in comparison with the solar cells using mesoporous films templated by PIB-PEO only.

Abstract
Mesoporous zirconia thin films (MZFs) were synthesized using zirconium hydroxide sol particles and a structure directing agent, Pluronic F127 (PEO106PPO70PEO106, EO = ethylene oxide, PO = propylene oxide). By controlling the F127/Zr ratio, we obtained two distinct MZFs with one in the Fmmm structure and the other in the P63/mmc structure. The pore structures of these films were characterized by low-angle X-ray diffraction, grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering, electron microscopy, and N2 sorption measurement. The Fmmm structure has interconnected pores and the P63/mmc structure has less accessible pores. The MZFs were functionalized with glucose oxidase (GOx) and were studied for their potentials as an electrochemical sensor for glucose. The GOx-functionalized MZF electrodes show high sensitivity to glucose in a broad range of glucose concentration of 0.025 - 6.8 mM, which can be attributed to their biocompatibility providing a favorable microenvironment for GOx immobilization and to their 3D pore structures with good accessibility of pores.

Abstract
3D nanostructured transparent indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes prepared by glancing angle deposition (GLAD) were used for the spectroelectrochemical characterization of cytochrome c (Cyt c) and neuroglobin (Nb). These small hemoproteins, involved as electron-transfer partners in the prevention of apoptosis, are oppositely charged at physiological pH and can each be adsorbed within the ITO network under different pH conditions. The resulting modified electrodes were investigated by UV-visible absorption spectroscopy coupled with cyclic voltammetry. By using nondenaturating adsorption conditions, we demonstrate that both proteins are capable of direct electron transfer to the conductive ITO surface, sharing apparent standard potentials similar to those reported in solution. Preservation of the 3D protein structure upon adsorption was confirmed by resonance Raman (rR) spectroscopy. Analysis of the derivative cyclic voltabsorptograms (DCVA) monitored either in the Soret or the Q bands at scan rates up to 1 V s(-1) allowed us to investigate direct interfacial electron transfer kinetics. From the DCVA shape and scan rate dependences, we conclude that the interaction of Cyt c with the ITO surface is more specific than Nb, suggesting an oriented adsorption of Cyt c and a random adsorption of Nb on the ITO surface. At the same time, Cyt c appears more sensitive to the experimental adsorption conditions, and complete denaturation of Cyt c may occur as evidenced from cross-correlation of rR spectroscopy and spectroelectrochemistry.

Abstract
Nanoporous films of indium tin oxide (ITO), with thicknesses ranging from 250 nm to 2 μm, were prepared by Glancing Angle Deposition (GLAD) and used as highly sensitive transparent 3D-electrodes for quantitatively interrogating, by time-resolved spectroelectrochemistry, the reactivity of microperoxidase-11 (MP-11) adsorbed within such films. The capacitive current densities of these 3D-electrodes as well as the amount of adsorbed MP-11 were shown to be linearly correlated to the GLAD ITO film thickness, indicating a homogeneous distribution of MP-11 across the film as well as homogeneous film porosity. Under saturating adsorption conditions, MP-11 film concentration as high as 60 mM was reached. This is equivalent to a stack of 110 monolayers of MP-11 per micrometer film thickness. This high MP-11 film loading combined with the excellent ITO film conductivity has allowed the simultaneous characterization of the heterogeneous one-electron transfer dynamics of the MP-11 Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox couple by cyclic voltammetry and cyclic voltabsorptometry, up to a scan rate of few volts per second with a satisfactory single-scan signal-to-noise ratio. The potency of the method to unravel complex redox coupled chemical reactions was also demonstrated with the catalytic reduction of oxygen by MP-11. In the presence of O(2), cross-correlation of electrochemical and spectroscopic data has allowed us to determine the key kinetics and thermodynamics parameters of the redox catalysis that otherwise could not be easily extracted using conventional protein film voltammetry. On the basis of numerical simulations of cyclic voltammograms and voltabsorptograms and within the framework of different plausible catalytic reaction schemes including appropriate approximations, it was shown possible to discriminate between different possible catalytic pathways and to identify the relevant catalytic cycle. In addition, from the best fits of simulations to the experimental voltammograms and voltabsorptograms, the partition coefficient of O(2) for the ITO film as well as the values of two kinetic rate constants could be extracted. It was finally concluded that the catalytic reduction of O(2) by MP-11 adsorbed within nanoporous ITO films occurs via a 2-electron mechanism with the formation of an intermediate Fe(III)-OOH adduct characterized by a decay rate of 11 s(-1). The spectroelectroanalytical strategy presented here opens new opportunities for characterizing complex redox-coupled chemical reactions not only with redox proteins, but also with redox biomimetic systems and catalysts. It might also be of great interest for the development and optimization of new spectroelectrochemical sensors and biosensors, or eventually new photoelectrocatalytic systems or biofuel cells.

Abstract
In this study, we describe the use of organized mesoporous titanium oxide (TiO(2)) films as three-dimensional templates for protein microarrays with enhanced protein loading capacity and detection sensitivity. Multilayered mesoporous TiO(2) films with high porosity and good connectivity were synthesized using a graft copolymer consisting of a poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) backbone and poly(oxyethylene methacrylate) (POEM) side chains as a structure-directing template. The average pore size and thickness of the TiO(2) films were 50-70 nm and 1.5 μm, respectively. Proteins were covalently immobilized onto mesoporous TiO(2) film via 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), and protein loading onto TiO(2) films was about four times greater than on planar glass substrates, which consequently improved the protein activity. Micropatterned mesoporous TiO(2) substrates were prepared by fabricating poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogel microstructures on TiO(2) films using photolithography. Because of non-adhesiveness of PEG hydrogel towards proteins, proteins were selectively immobilized onto surface-modified mesoporous TiO(2) region, creating protein microarray. Specific binding assay between streptavidin/biotin and between PSA/anti-PSA demonstrated that the mesoporous TiO(2)-based protein microarrays yielded higher fluorescence signals and were more sensitive with lower detection limits than microarrays based on planar glass slides.
