The fabrication and applications of porous anodic alumina (PAA) have been studied for decades. Recently, preparation of PAA template directly formed on Si has been developed to enhance the performance of the fabricated nanostructures. However, less attention is paid to the anodization mechanism of the Al film on the Si substrate. In the current study, the PAA template was fabricated on Si of which an interlayer was sandwiched between the Al film and the Si substrate. The anodization behavior of the Al film, especially at the alumina–substrate interface, was investigated through the observation of the variation of oxidation current and the structural change of alumina. Different degree of dissolution at the pore base of alumina was revealed when a different interlayer was introduced, leading to the formation of the arched pore bottom. At the same time, difference in the variation of current was also observed as the pore base reached the alumina–Si interface. These features were different from those observed in conventional anodization of Al foils. The findings in this study are of scientific and technological importance for the template-mediated growth of nanostructures, especially for those to be integrated into Si devices.

Strontium titanate nanowires were electrochemically synthesized with nanoporous alumina template. Both chemical and electrical variables such as electrolyte pH, temperature, and current wave-form were modulated to investigate the synthesis process of SrTiO3 nanowires. Superimposed cathodic pulse and diffusion time accelerated the growth of SrTiO3 nanowires, which suggested that the concentration of H+ and Sr2+ ion inside alumina template had a strong influence on the formation of SrTiO3 nanowires. Morphology and crystallinity of SrTiO3 nanowires were investigated with scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy.

The feasibility of surface nanopatterning with TiO2nanotanks embedded in a nanoporous alumina template was investigated. Self-assembled anodized aluminium oxide (AAO) template, in conjunction with sol gel process, was used to fabricate this nanocomposite object. Through hydrolysis and condensation of the titanium alkoxide, an inorganic TiO2gel was moulded within the nanopore cavities of the alumina template. The nanocomposite object underwent two thermal treatments to stabilize and crystallize the TiO2. The morphology of the nanocomposite object was characterized by Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). The TiO2nanotanks obtained have cylindrical shapes and are approximately 69 nm in diameter with a tank-to-tank distance of 26 nm. X-ray diffraction analyses performed by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) with selected area electron diffraction (SAED) were used to investigate the TiO2structure. The optical properties were studied using UV-Vis spectroscopy.
