Abstract
A method of forming an inorganic film on a surface can include depositing a polymer at a layer on a surface, swelling the polymer with a solvent to produce a swollen polymer on the surface, infiltrating the swollen polymer with a precursor, removing the swollen polymer after infiltrating the swollen polymer with the precursor, and forming a porous inorganic film on the surface based on removing the swollen polymer.
