5th INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON ELECTRODEPOSITED NANOSTRUCTURES 7-9 June 2007, Iasi, Romania	ABSTRACTS

Functional nanostructures using highly ordered anodic porous alumina Hideki Masuda Tokyo Metropolitan University, Kanagawa Academy of Science and Technology 1-1 Minamiosawa, Hachioji, Tokyo 192-03, Japan E-mail: masuda-hideki@c.metro-u.ac.jp Fabrication of highly ordered hole-array architectures with uniform-sized holes ranging from the submicron to nanometer range has recently attracted increasing interest because of demands for the development of various types of functional devices. Anodic porous alumina, which is formed by anodization of Al in appropriate acidic solutions, is a typical self-ordered nanohole-array material. This material is one of promising candidates for the starting structure of nanofabrication due to its unique fine geometrical structures. We have been studying the fabrication processes of highly ordered holes array structures of anodic porous alumina and their application to various functional devices. In the present report, we describe a recent progress of fabrication of ordered nanostructures using highly ordered anodic porous alumina. References [1] H. Masuda and K.
