Abstract
ABSTRACT: We develop a quantitative model to calculate the optimal experimental conditions for the etching of the oxide barrier of porous anodic alumina (PAA) membranes. The method is applied to a membrane fabricated at 370 V in a solution of 2% citric acid. The process creates a network of small pores at the bottom of the larger pores, which accelerates the oxide barrier etching relatively to the pore walls of the PAA membranes, when etched in a solution of phosphoric acid. The oxide barrier etching is confirmed by observation of PAA membranes using scanning electron microscopy, revealing the formation of the small pores and the preferential etching of the bottom of the pores rather than the pore walls. The proposed method, which leads to a better control over the fabrication of nanoporous templates, can be adapted to oxide barriers of different PAA membranes formed at different voltages and in different acids.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
