“…As porous alumina films [1][2][3] have promising applications in biomedicine [4][5][6], optoelectronic devices [7,8], solar cells [9,10], decorative coating [11], catalysis [12,13], etc., and are of growing interest to many research groups. In recent years, three main structures, namely, nanowires (NWs), nanotubes (NTs), and nanofilms (or nanowebs) [14], have been obtained using porous alumina as a template for growing different materials inside and on its surface.…”
