Thermal Contraction of Electrodeposited Bi/BiSb Superlattice Nanowires
The lattice parameter of Bi/BiSb superlattice nanowire (SLNW) has been measured using in situ high-temperature X-ray diffraction method. The single crystalline Bi/BiSb SLNW arrays with different bilayer thicknesses have been fabricated within the porous anodic alumina membranes (AAMs) by a charge-controlled pulse electrodeposition. Different temperature dependences of the lattice parameter and ...
متن کاملElectrodeposition of Thermoelectric Superlattice Nanowires
There is a renewed interest in the field of thermoelectrics because of the remarkable efficiency improvement that can be achieved in nanostructured materials, for example, superlattice thin films and quantum dots. Theoretical calculations predict that further enhancement of the thermoelectric figure of merit can be achieved in superlattice nanowires (zero-dimensional) [5] rather than convention...
متن کاملInvestigations of Microstructures and Magnetic Properties through Off-time between Pulses and Controlled Cu Content in Pulse Electrodeposited NiCu Nanowires
NiCu alloy nanowires arrays were embedded into the anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template by ac-pulse electrodeposition. Different off-time were used in electrolyte with constant concentration of Ni and Cu and acidity of 3. The effect of deposition parameters on alloy contents was investigated by studying the microstructure and magnetic properties of as-deposited NiCu alloy nanowires. Atomic forc...
متن کاملInvestigations of Magnetic Properties Through Electrodeposition Current and Controlled Cu Content in Pulse Electrodeposited CoFeCu Nanowires
CoFeCu nanowires were deposited by pulsed electrodeposition technique into the porous alumina templates by a two-step mild anodization technique, using the single-bath method. The electrodeposition was performed in a constant electrolyte while Cu constant was controlled by electrodeposition current. The electrodeposition current was 3.5, 4.25, 5 and 6 mA. The effect of electrodeposition current...
متن کاملTuning the crystallinity of thermoelectric Bi(2)Te(3) nanowire arrays grown by pulsed electrodeposition.
Arrays of thermoelectric bismuth telluride (Bi(2)Te(3)) nanowires were grown into porous anodic alumina (PAA) membranes prepared by a two-step anodization. Bi(2)Te(3) nanowire arrays were deposited by galvanostatic, potentiostatic and pulsed electrodeposition from aqueous solution at room temperature. Depending on the electrodeposition method and as a consequence of different growth mechanisms,...
