Abstract
A structure based on porous anodic alumina with through pores is synthesized. This structure may be of some interest in terms of fabricating electrically switchable membranes. Conducting tubulenes connected to a common input electrode are located in the pores of the structure. It is hypothesized that enhancement of the electric field nonuniformity associated with the indicated structure morphology should help raise the degree of ionic selectivity of the membrane and broaden the range of permissible concentrations of ions in the processed solution. An suggestion regarding the structure of synthesized tubulenes in the context of the problem of suppressing the physical sorption of ions on the pore surface and raising the hydrogen and oxygen reduction potentials relative to those of state-of-the-art field-switchable membranes is also made.
