Abstract
In past decade, fabricating nanomaterialshas attracted great attention in both scientific and technical aspects as a core research field of nanotechnology,because of the novel or enhanced physical and chemical propertiesdifferent from those in bulk state and the promising potentiality for a variety ofapplications. Here, various tailored processes will be introducedtofabricate versatile metallicand oxide nanostructuresin form of nanotubes (TiO2-base, Pd, Pt), nanowires(Ni, Fe-Pt, Fe-Co, Fe-Ni), nanorods (TiO2, TiO2-Ru), nanoporousfilms (TiO2, TiO2-RuO2,Pd), and nano-thin films(Ag3Sn/Sn) on glass, Al and Cu alloys by combining Al anodizing and various nano-coating technologies.Moreover, as examples for practical uses, investigations on the characteristics of the nanomaterials towardhigh-performance photocatalyst, perpendicular magnetic recording media, catalytic electrode materials of hydrogen production, and highly reliable automotive connectors will be also addressed.
