Abstract

The transient current curves I( t) due to the steep decrease in barrier layer voltage during the stationary growth of porous aluminium oxide are studied. The electric field perturbation induced in the barrier layer is considered. The transient current curves I( t) are interpreted in terms of a mechanism involving three consecutive steps in which the rate-determining step is thought to be the transfer of electric charge across the barrier layer followed by field-assisted dissolution of the aluminium oxide.
