AB  - Ordered mesostructured TiO2 thin films were constructed through a method that 
      combined sol-gel with evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA). It was found that 
      the calcination temperature, as well as the type of block copolymer, could vary 
      the TiO2 mesoporous structure. Based on tension stress calculated by the surface 
      energy of crystallites and the compression calculated by interface energy between 
      the crystallites, the thermodynamic study for the sample had been carried out and 
      the critical crystallite size expression of the mesoporous film was presented for 
      the prediction of the thermal stability of the mesoporous structure at high 
      temperature. It was also found that varying the mass ratio of templating agent to 
      inorganic precursor could adjust the pore size of mesoporous TiO2. The pore size 
      regulating mechanism had been discussed. The sample calcined at 450-500  degrees C, which 
      had a higher specific surface area and larger pore size, exhibited higher 
      photocatalyzed destruction capability of Methylene Blue.
