Nanoporous Au-Fe alloy was synthesized via a wet chemistry route using ordered nanoporous silica as a hard template. The nanoporous Au-Fe consisted of aligned arrays of nanopores that were uniform in composition and ordered in hexagonal lattice, whereas Au-Fe nanoparticles synthesized without templates exhibited broad dispersions in the chemical composition and/or particle size. Nanoporous Au-F...

the phenylthiourea-substituted triethoxysilane as a silane agent was synthesized and grafted on highly ordered nanoporous silica (lus-1) with a textured morphology and hexagonal array. this material (tu-lus-1) contained 0.8 mmol/g of soft base phenylthiourea group and surface area 760 m2g-1 and was able to adsorb 0.75 mmolhg/g of tu-lus-1 in endothermic reaction.

This paper describes the formation of mono-domain highly ordered nanoporous alumina on the scale of a 2 inch diameter silicon wafer by anodization of aluminium evaporated on a patterned SiO(2) mask on a silicon substrate. The position of the ordered pores correlates with holes in the SiO(2) mask, which guide the electric field during anodization and initiates pore nucleation. The technique is s...

Microstructural and mechanical properties of organic surfactant templated nanoporous thin silica films have been studied by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and nanoindentation. Compared with many other porous low-k dielectrics, the self-assembled molecularly templated nanoporous silica films demonstrate better mechanical properties. This is ascribed to the presence o...

Ordered gold nanoparticle arrays with high lateral density of 6.87 × 1010 nanoparticles cm−2, which are stable up to temperatures of 600 ◦C, were fabricated. To this end, nanoparticles formed by thermal vacuum evaporation of Au were immobilized within the pores of nanoporous silicon wafers prepared by block copolymer lithography coupled with dry plasma etching. Even after high-temperature treat...

in this paper, the possibility of using a new ordered nanoporous carbon as a new fiber in headspace solid phase microextraction (hs-spme) to determine of mononitrotoluenes (mnts) in waste water is demonstrated. the structural order and textural properties of the ordered nanoporous carbon were studied by x ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) images and nitrogen adsorption i...

Large area silicon nitride (SiN(x)) nanoporous surfaces are fabricated using poly(ether-ether-ketone) (PEEK) nanorod arrays as a template. The procedure involves manipulation of nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) templates in order to form an ordered array of PEEK nanopillars with high temperature resistant characteristics. In this context, self-ordered AAO templates are infiltrated with PE...

During the last decade, a great variety of nanostructures (nanotubes, nanofibers or nanowires) based on metals, carbons, polymers or semiconductors, have been synthesized following different synthesis procedures by using nanoporous anodic alumina membranes (AAM) as templates [1]. The principal reason for using templates of nanoporous AAM as precursor patterns lies on the possibility to obtain, ...
