Fabrication and characterization of highly ordered Au nanowire arrays

چکیده
In this paper, we report the electrochemical fabrication of highly ordered Au nanowire arrays within hexagonal close-packed nanochannel alumina (NCA) templates with pore diameters ranging from 35 nm to 100 nm. The observations of TEM, SAED, and HRTEM show that single crystal Au nanowires have been obtained within the templates with 45 nm diameters. The growth mechanism of the single crystal Au nanowires is also discussed.

Nanowire is a cylindrical nano-structure with nanometer dimensions. In this research, the studied nanowire was made from the magnetic triple Ni-Fe-Co alloy. We utilized ordered porous anodic aluminum oxide as a template for the nanowire deposition. The nanowire arrays were electrodeposited in the cylindrical pores of the oxide layer by AC potential in a simple sulfate bath. Then the relation ...

متن کاملAluminum Nanowire Arrays via Directed Assembly.
Freestanding and vertically-oriented metal nanowire arrays have potential utility in a number of applications, but presently lack a route to fabrication. Template-based techniques, such as electrodeposition into lithographically defined nanopore arrays, have produced well-ordered nanowire arrays with a maximum pitch of about 2 μm; such nanowires, however, tend to cluster due to local attractive...
متن کاملFabrication of Highly Ordered Polymeric Nanodot and Nanowire Arrays Templated by Supramolecular Assembly Block Copolymer Nanoporous Thin Films
Realizing the vast technological potential of patternable block copolymers requires both the precise controlling of the orientation and long-range ordering, which is still a challenging topic so far. Recently, we have demonstrated that ordered nanoporous thin film can be fabricated from a simple supramolecular assembly approach. Here we will extend this approach and provide a general route to f...
