Antireffection polymer surface using anodic porous alumina molds with tapered holes

Antireflection (AR) polymer structures composed of tapered conical pillars were fabricated using highly ordered anodic porous alumina. The shape of the holes in the anodic porous alumina was controlled by performing repeated anodization and pore-widening treatments. By replicating the structure of the anodic porous alumina with PMMA, polymer AR structures were obtained.
