Despite extensive studies on mesoporous silica since the early 1990s, the synthesis of two‐dimensional (2D) silica nanostructures remains challenging. Here, mesoporous silica is synthesized at an interface between two immiscible solvents under conditions leading to the formation of 2D superstructure...
