Abstract

Self-assembled nanopore templates were fabricated by anodizing aluminum in several electrolytes under specially selected conditions. The size of the nanopores was controlled, and many sizes were fabricated. Y-junction nanopore templates were also fabricated using a two-step anodization. Magnetic nanowires and Y-junction nanowires were then fabricated by electrochemical deposition of magnetic material into the nanopore templates and Y-junction nanopore templates. The magnetic properties of nanowires were investigated by VSM and compared.
