Abstract
The topic of the thesis is preparation of inorganic functional nano-array by using template-based method. I used two kinds of templates:the first is inorganic template–commercial anodic aluminum oxide membranes with pore size of 100 and 200nm and the second is organic template–polymer template with PS matrix and 30nm pores. I fabricated nano-arrays by using these two different templates. There are two materials that I wanted to introduce to the pores of the templates. I fabricated nano-arrays of titanium dioxide which has excellent photocatalytic properties, prepared by using sol-gel method and electrodeposition method. The other material is nickel which has ferromagnetic property, prepared by electrodeposition method. Inorganic template:For the titanium dioxide nano-arrays, I used the sol-gel method which is usually the traditional method for preparing the oxide materials. In order to control the length of titanium dioxide structure, we also used electrodeposition method. For nickel metal, we fabricated the nano-array by electrodeposition. I studied the variation of magnetic properties caused by different Ni nano-array structure by adjusting the electrodeposition time. Organic template:For the titanium dioxide nano-arrays, I also used the sol-gel method to infill the pores of the template. Besides this method, I also improve the disadvantage of process by the infiltration of titanium precursor solution. This method could improve the drawback of sol-gel method greatly. For nickel metal, I constructed the nano-array by using electrodeposition method. I could get the nickel nano-array by controlling the sutiable parameters of the process.
