title: Oriented growth of small mesochannels utilizing a porous anodic alumina substrate: preparation of continuous film with standing mesochannels.
abstract: Standing mesochannels: An "oriented growth on the mesoscale" is demonstrated for the formation of standing mesochannels. The standing mesochannels in the continuous film grow epitaxially from the mesochannels oriented along the straight holes of porous anodic alumina substrate.
