In the present work, we show the feasibility to grow highly ordered anodic Nb2O5 nanochannel structures from a thin Nb-layer on conducting glass (fluorine doped tin oxide, FTO). This is achieved using a glycerol-phosphate electrolyte at 180◦C and a suitable anodization voltage that allows a rapid and complete conversion of the entire metallic layer into a transparent oxide layer of an extremely well defined directional nature with 20--30 nm wide open vertical channels. These layers can be used, either in the amorphous state or after thermal crystallization, for efficient reversible electrochromic switching devices.
