This chapter introduces the fundamentals of and various technical approaches developed for template-based synthesis of nanorod arrays. After a brief introduction to various concepts associated with the growth of nanorods, nanowires and nanobelts, the chapter focuses mainly on the most widely used and well established techniques for the template-based growth of nanorod arrays: electrochemical deposition, electrophoretic deposition, template filling via capillary force and centrifugation, and chemical conversion. In each section, the relevant fundamentals are first introduced, and then examples are given to illustrate the specific details of each technique.
