Abstract:
Anodization is a method to fabricate a tunable nanoporosity and thickness of alumina coating. This research is devoted to large-area hard anodization (HA), ultrahard anodization (UHA), and transitional modes. The phenomenon and challenges of UHA and the transition from HA are studied on large-area samples using linear-sweep voltammetry. The findings indicate that a uniform large-area thick coating can be achieved by utilizing pre-UHA modes. The study's results indicate that UHA leads only to coatings with non-uniform thickness in large-area anodization. The peculiarities of pre-UHA are studied using different temperatures (0, 5, 10, and 15 °C) and processing times (1, 2, 4, 6, and 12 h) in a 0.3 M oxalic acid electrolyte. The current study shows the possibility for the fast growth of thick nanoporous alumina up to 235 ± 4 µm for only 12 h.

When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
