Nickel — Alumina nanostructures formation by electrochemical processing for high-density data storage devices

摘要

The features of uniform nickel electrochemical deposition into the pores of thin ordered porous anodic alumina (PA) are considered. The influence of deposition conditions on ordering and topological parameters of nickel nanopillars are investigated. The impact of the barrier layer thinning process at the PA pores bottom on the origination and growth of the ordered metal nanopillars is discussed.
