Understanding Ionic Flow in Nanofluidic Blind‐Hole Anodic Aluminum Oxide (AAO) Membranes for Osmotic Energy Generation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) membranes have traditionally served as structural supports in osmotic energy systems. Here, blind‐hole AAO membranes are demonstrated as active ion‐selective platforms with tunable nanopore structures. By balancing membrane resistance, ion selectivity, and flux, enhanced performance is achieved, delivering a maximum power ...

Controlling the surface functionalities of nanoporous alumina membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A new approach for controlling and to functionalise nanoporous anodic alumina oxide (AAO) membranes is described. Our approach is predicated on the remarkable stability of the silanised AAO surface during anodisation.

Biofunctionalization of Nanoporous Alumina Substrates

open access: yes, 2014
Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) is a nanoporous material with well-defined hexagonally ordered, cylindrical parallel pores running straight through the material’s thickness. Owing to the transparency of AAO, thin-films of this material have been explored for in situ monitoring of biological relevant processes occurring within these nanoporous templates by ...

Controlling Osteogenic Differentiation through Nanoporous Alumina

open access: yesJournal of Biomaterials and Nanobiotechnology, 2014
Nanotopographical features are found to have significant effects on bone behavior. In the present study, nanoporous aluminas with different pore sizes (20, 100 and 200 nm in diameter), were evaluated for their osteoinductive and drug eluting properties. W20-17 marrow stromal cells were seeded on nanoporous alumina with and without the addition of BMP-2.

Nanoporous Anodic Alumina: A Versatile Platform for Optical Biosensors [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials, 2014
Nanoporous anodic alumina (NAA) has become one of the most promising nanomaterials in optical biosensing as a result of its unique physical and chemical properties. Many studies have demonstrated the outstanding capabilities of NAA for developing optical biosensors in combination with different optical techniques.

Laser spectroscopy of gas confined in nanoporous materials

open access: yes, 2009
We show that high-resolution laser spectroscopy can probe surface interactions of gas confined in nano-cavities of porous materials. We report on strong line broadening and unfamiliar lineshapes due to tight confinement, as well as signal enhancement due

Extreme mechanical resilience of self-assembled nanolabyrinthine materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Low-density materials with tailorable properties have attracted attention for decades, yet stiff materials that can resiliently tolerate extreme forces and deformation while being manufactured at large scales have remained a rare find.

Nanostructural Engineering of Nanoporous Anodic Alumina for Biosensing Applications [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials, 2014
Modifying the diameter of the pores in nanoporous anodic alumina opens new possibilities in the application of this material. In this work, we review the different nanoengineering methods by classifying them into two kinds: in situ and ex situ. Ex situ methods imply the interruption of the anodization process and the addition of intermediate steps ...
