Abstract:

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 and annealing on the magnetic behavior of the nanowires was investigated. Nanowires were fabricated with 30nm diameter and 100nm inter-pore distance with both bcc-CoFe and fcc- Cu phases. With increasing the electrodeposition current the Cu content decrease and the coercivity and magnetization increase up to its optimum value, then decrease. Annealing improved the coercivity, maximum coercivity was obtained for sample fabricated at 5 mA current. After annealing the magnetization decrease for all sampls. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the sample at electrodeposition current 3.5 mA after annealed indicates that Cu and CoFe phases separately was formed and separate peak related to CoFeCu alloy structure is not seen.

Investigations 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...

The effect of pulsed electrodeposition parameters on the microstructure and magnetic properties of the CoNi nanowires

CoNi nanowires were deposited by pulsed electrodeposition technique into porous alumina templates. The effect of off time between pulses (toff) and reductive/oxidative time (treduc/oxid) on the microstructure and magnetic properties of the CoNi nanowires were investigated. Maximum coercivity and squareness were obtained for samples fabricated at treduc/oxid= 0.5 ms and toff =400 ms. The coerciv...
