A facile and universal synthetic approach for preparing superlattice nanowire (SLNW) arrays is developed. In this method, two kinds of elements are alternately electrodeposited into the holes of the anodic alumina oxide (AAO) template, automatically in separate electrolytes by a programmed device. This method is not restricted by the relative values of the reduction potentials of the elements, and the deposition of each element can be controlled independently. Three kinds of representative SLNW arrays containing noble-metal material (Ag/Ni), thermoelectric material (Bi/Sb) and magnetic material (Ni/Cu) with adjustable segment length are fabricated successfully.
一种用于制备超晶格纳米线（SLNW）阵列的简便通用的合成方法被开发出来。在这种方法中，两种元素通过程控设备在各自的电解液中自动交替地电沉积到阳极氧化铝（AAO）模板的孔中。该方法不受元素还原电位相对值的限制，并且可以独立控制每个元素的沉积。成功制备了三种具有可调段长的代表性的包含贵金属材料（Ag/Ni）、热电材料（Bi/Sb）和磁性材料（Ni/Cu）的 SLNW 阵列。
