An Electrodeposition Method for Preparing (Ni-Cu) /(Cu-Ni) Multilayers on magnesium alloy from ionic liquid

Guo J., Guo X., Guo J., Guo X., Dong J., Wang S., Gong J., Zhu R., Ding W., Shanghai Jiao Tong University, CN

Abstract A single bath of ionic liquid electrodeposition method has been developed for the preparation of (Ni-Cu)/(Cu-Ni) multilayers on AZ91D magnesium alloy. The technique has been used to make multilayers with a composition of (92.47at.%Ni-7.53at.%Cu) [...]

Statistical Analysis of Electroplated Indium (III) Sulfide (In2S3) Films, a Potential Buffer Material for PV (Heterojucntion Solar Cells) Systems, using Organic Electrolytes

Ali Mughal M., Newell M.J., Vangilder J., Thapa S., Hall J., McNew D., Felizco F., Wood K., Engelken R., Carroll B.R., Johnson J.B., Arkansas State University, US

Deposition conditions were optimized in order to avoid non-uniformity, cracks, and improper stoichiometry in electrodeposited indium (III) sulfide (In2S3)thin films using statistical analysis.

Multi-purpose tool for checking the microfabrication products

De Pasquale G., Somà A., Politecnico di Torino, IT

This paper introduces a multi-purpose tool addressed to the microfabrication processes monitoring and material property measurement at the wafer level during both process development and manufacturing. The on-line testing tool presented in this paper is [...]

Fabrication of Structurally Tailored Cobalt Nanowires

Debburman P.K., Kaur D., Pandya D.K., IIT Delhi, IN

we report an interesting observation of effecting structural transition of electrochemically deposited cobalt nanowires with change in aspect ratio of the nanowires. This change can be controlled by the deposition temperature. These nanowires were deposited [...]

Electrodeposition of Rhenium-Tin Nanowires

Naor-Pomerantz A., Eliaz N., Gileadi E., Tel Aviv University, IL

Rhenium (Re) is a refractory metal which exhibits an extraordinary combination of properties. Thus, nanowires and other nanostructures of Re-alloys may possess unique properties resulting from both Re chemistry and the nanometer scale, and become [...]

Structural and magnetic Properties of electrochemically grown Co-Fe and Ni-Fe alloy nanowire arrays

Pandya D.K., Kaur D., Chaudhary S., Kashyap S.C., IIT Delhi, IN

Magnetic nanowires are of immense importance in ultrahigh density magnetic storage media, micromagnetic sensors in read heads and spintronics devices. The nanowires of binary alloys of ferromagnetic metals like Co, Ni and Fe are particularly [...]

Dissymetric metal deposition on carbon nanotubes

Warakulwit C., Delville M.-H., Ravaine V., Limtrakul J., Kuhn A., University of Bordeaux, FR

Short carbon nanotubes have been modified selectively on one end with metal using an original bulk technique based on bipolar electrochemistry. A stabilized suspension of nanotubes is introduced in a capillary containing an aqueous metal [...]
