Template synthesis of silver nanowires is studied in this paper. Unlike previous studies, highly ordered polymer-based template fabricated by nanoimprinting lithography was used instead of porous polycarbonate (PC) and anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) templates. This new template combines the advantages of the traditional templates and overcomes their drawbacks at the same time. Electrodeposition was carried out under different overpotential and time periods. Long single silver nanowires were found in the templates. The average length of the nanowires was much shorter than the length of the template, which can be explained by difficulty of plating solution diffusion. Wettability of the template and how to increase channel filling rate were also discussed in this paper.

Indium nanowires with diameters approximately 300 nm have been synthesized by a hydraulic pressure technique using anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) templates. The indium melt is injected into the AAO template and solidified to form nanostructures. The nanowires are dense, continuous and uniformly run through the entire ∼60 μm thickness of the AAO template. X-ray diffraction (XRD) reveals that the nanowires are polycrystalline with a preferred orientation. SEM is performed to characterize the morphology of the nanowires.

This paper discussed fabrication of a very low thermal resistance of thermal interface membrane (TIM). It is assumed that anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template with silver nanowires inside can function very well as TIM. The TIM was made of well-aligned silver nanowires are expected to reduce the thermal resistance between the heat sink and the electronic device, a chip for example. This work also calculated the pore density, surface area, and porosity of AAO, and thermal conductivity values of AAO with different diameter nanowires inside.
