Droplet-scale conversion of aluminum into transparent aluminum oxide by low-voltage anodization in an electrowetting system

Caption

Researchers from the Ateneo de Manila University and the Nara Institute of Science and Technology made transparent aluminum oxide (TAlOx) by applying microdroplets of acidic solution onto ordinary aluminum and applying a controlled electric current.
