Abstract

A method is proposed for analytical description of current transients at the template-assisted electrodeposition of metal into porous films in anodic aluminum oxide (AAO). The template-assisted electrodeposition of copper and gold is accomplished. For the copper electrodeposition, it is shown that the experimental data are in quantitative agreement with the calculated values of current without any fitting parameters. The parameters of the AAO film structure including the conicity of pores and the number of dead-end channels are measured and their effect on the process of template-assisted electrodeposition is studied .
