Gold tubes membrane with novel morphology was fabricated on glass substrate by electroless plating gold on ZnO crystals array, and then annealing and removing the ZnO template by acid erosion. The morphology and size of the gold tubes membrane were decided by ZnO template. Hexagonal gold tubes membrane and double-wall gold tubes membrane were obtained, which enjoys some potential usage in electrode modification or chemical separation due to their huge surface area and unique geometric structure. SEM images show that those gold tubes in membrane are hollowed hexagonal columns with a closed head and an open bottom. Further researches found that two main factors determined the success of replication: the gold seeds (4–5 nm in diameter) immobilized on ZnO surface through APTMS (3-Aminopropyl-trimethoxysilane) before gold electroless plating and the annealing condition after electroless plating.
Utilizing ZnO template with different morphologies, rods array and tubes array, we got the hexagonal tubes membrane and double-wall tubes membrane which enjoy a potential usage as electrodes material or chemical separation membrane due to their novel geometrical shape or huge surface area.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
