Field effect modulated nanofluidic diode membrane based on Al2O3/W heterogeneous nanopore arrays

Jürgen Brugger, Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Songmei Wu, Fabien Patrick Wildhaber

We developed Al2O3/W heterogeneous nanopore arrays for field effect modulated nanofluidic diodes. They are fabricated by transferring self-organized nanopores of anodic aluminium oxide into a W thin film. The nanopores are ∼20 nm in diameter and 400 nm in ...

Anode dusting during the electrolytic production of aluminium

Timea Tordai

The disintegration of the carbon anodes during the electrolysis of alumina produces dust particles contaminating the electrolytic bath. This phenomenon, called dusting, is one of the most deleterious Al electrolysis failures, as it leads to a significant d ...
