abstract

  • Arrays of well aligned Ru nanowires and nanotubes were prepared by electrodeposition through porous anodic aluminum oxide membranes. It is shown that Ru nanowires are formed at low cathodic deposition overpotential, while nanotubes are prepared at higher cathodic overpotential. The inner diameter of the nanotube can be controlled by the deposition potential, and it varies from 0 to 70% of the outer diameter as the deposition potential is changed from -0.30 to -0.45 V vs SCE.
