High-temperature annealing of porous anodic aluminium oxide prepared in selenic acid electrolyte

I. V. Roslyakov et al.

Summary: Selenic acid electrolyte can produce porous anodic aluminium oxide (AAO) films with low porosity and high optical transparency. The high-temperature behavior of AAO obtained in a selenic acid electrolyte is reported for the first time. The two-step crystallization process results in the formation of coarse-grained corundum films with stable pores. The physicochemical properties of AAO depend on the annealing temperature. The optical properties and thermal expansion coefficient of selenic-acid-made porous AAO films are quantified.

Optical engineering of nanoporous photonic crystals by Gaussian-Like pulse anodization

Lina Liu et al.

Summary: A new class of nanoporous anodic alumina photonic crystals (NAA-PCs) are optically engineered by four distinct forms of Gaussian-like pulse anodization (GLPA), allowing for precise tuning of their photonic stopbands (PSBs) across the UV-visible spectrum. Sensitivity of these PC structures to changes in their effective medium is determined by quantifying spectral shifts in their characteristic PSB upon infiltration with solutions of varying refractive index. These advancements provide opportunities for future developments of high-quality NAA-PCs with broad applicability in various photonic technologies.
