New Approach to Nanostructured Electrodes Fabrication

Abstract

The aim of this work is preparation of nanostructured electrodes, whose surface is modi- fied by solid gold amalgam nanorods. Nanostructured electrodes are prepared by anodization of tung- sten/aluminium layers and consequently electrochemical deposition of gold into the pre made nanopo- rous alumina template. This is followed by deposition of mercury on the produced gold nanorods and after alumina template removing, the nanostructured gold amalgame will be formed on the electrode surface.
