Magneto-Dendrite Effect: Copper Electrodeposition under High Magnetic Field
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ionic vacancy is a by-product in electrochemical reaction, composed of polarized free space of the order of 0.1 nm with a 1 s lifetime, and playing key roles in nano-electrochemical processes. However, its chemical nature has not yet been clarified. In copper electrodeposition under a high magnetic field of 15 T, using a new electrode system called cyclotron magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) electrode (CMHDE) composed of a pair of concentric cylindrical electrodes, we have found an extraordinary dendritic growth with a drastic positive potential shift from hydrogen-gas evolution potential. Dendritic deposition is characterized by the co-deposition of hydrogen molecule, but such a positive potential shift makes hydrogen-gas evolution impossible. However, in the high magnetic field, instead of flat deposit, remarkable dendritic growth emerged. By examining the chemical nature of ionic vacancy, it was concluded that ionic vacancy works on the dendrite formation with the extraordinary potential shift.

Chiral properties were investigated in Cu and Cu2O composite films prepared by magneto-electrodeposition. The Cu-Cu2O films were electrodeposited in a CuSO4 and Na2SO4 aqueous solution under magnetic fields B (2 and 5 T) parallel (+B) or antiparallel (–B) to the faradaic current. The magneto-electrodeposited films were used as modified electrodes, and the chiral voltammetric behaviors were obse...
