Abstract: Highly ordered and porous anodic aluminum oxide templates were prepared. The ordered copper nano-wires arrays were assembled in nano-holes of the template by alternating current electrodeposition at lower voltage. The morphologies of template and copper nano-wires arrays were characterized by means of field emission scanning electron microscope(FESEM) and the crystal structure of copper nano-wires was determined by means of X-ray diffraction. The results indicate that copper nano-wires hold the preferred crystalline orientation along (111), (200), (220) and (331) crystal faces during growth, and the growth of copper nano-wires in the nano-holes of the template is homogenous and continuous.
