Preparation of porous membranes for the synthesis of nano- and micro-functional materials — •Giray Kartopu, Andre Piorra, Claus-Henning Solterbeck, and Mohammed Es-Souni — Institute for Materials and Surface Technology, University of Applied Sciences, Kiel, Germany

Nanoparticles of functional materials of the form of nano-wires and -tubules have recently attracted wide interest. There are many chemical routes existing for their synthesis. One of the most promising techniques involves the so-called ”template synthesis”[1,2], developed in the last decade, and employ a porous membrane (made of, e.g., alumina, polymer, etc.) as shape-protector and a suitable deposition technique for pore-filling, such as electrodeposition, sol-gel, CVD, etc. The choice of the to-be-produced material determines what sort of template and synthesis methods must be used. It is possible to control many properties of the final products: length, composition, shape (wire or tube), diameter, inter-distance, density, and so on.

In this work, it was aimed to prepare porous templates with controllable pore sizes and to fabricate metal and ceramic nanowires using them. By anodization of high-purity Al foils and p-type, low-resistivity Si wafers, self-standing, 10-100 µm thick templates with 1-2 µm and 20-100 nm pores, respectively, were obtained. Initial results of nano- and micro-wire deposition, such as solution-deposited TiO2 nanowires (dia. ∼50 nm) will also be presented.
