Fabrication of three dimensional interconnected porous carbons from branched anodic aluminum oxide template

摘要

In this communication, the morphology of double branched anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) templates from linear down or step down function of anodizing voltage is discussed. The interconnected AAO film is obtained when the thin pore wall at the final branched channels is dissolved by chemical etching. The three-dimensional interconnected porous carbons are fabricated by carbonization of polyimide film which is negative replicated from the layered interconnected AAO template.
