Mesoporous single crystals have a great potential application to a micro-laser device due to their regular external morphology and ordered internal pore channel connectivity. The mesoporous silica single crystal with a cubic Pm3n structure has been synthesized successfully using a highly charged density tri-head group quaternary ammonium surfactant (C18-2-3-1) as a template and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as an inorganic precursor in an acid medium through organic-inorganic cooperative assembly interaction. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observed that the mesoporous silica single crystal had a regular rhombic dodecahedron morphology with a uniform particle size of 5 μm. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy confirmed that the calcined mesoporous single crystal had a cubic structure with Pm3n symmetry, and N2-sorption approach measured that the single crystal had a large BET surface area of 550 cm2/g, large BJH pore volume of 0.20 cm3/g and BJH pore size of 2.4 nm.
