Generalized Simulation Model of Nanostructure Self-Formation Process by Anodic Oxidization of Aluminum and Titanium

摘要

The computer simulation results of physicochemical process of nanopore formation in aluminum andtitanium oxides are presented in this paper. The model based on an electric field distribution in anelectrochemical cell takes into account oxide formation and dissolution reactions on metal-oxide andoxide-electrolyte boundaries, respectively. Such an approach allows to describe geometriccharacteristics dependences of the nanostructured oxide layers on electrophysical and chemicalparameters throughout the formation process. The experimental results confirm the proposed modelvalidity.
