Electrodeposition of CuInSe2 (CIS) and CuInAlSe2 (CIAS) from aqueous solution has been systematically investigated by cyclic voltammetery implementing different scan rates. It has been shown that electrodeposited CIS and CIAS have been formed on the substrate through electrochemical-chemical interaction of reduces species on the substrate.  From the obtained results, it could be inferred that I...

The electrodeposition of Ni-MoO2 composite coatings is a specific process taking place under defined hydrodynamic conditions. In this work the influence of hydrodynamics, current density, and MoO2 concentration on the electrodeposition of Ni-MoO2 coatings from a suspension of MoO2 particles in a Watt’s type bath were investigated by comparison of their polarization characteristics for the hydro...

The electrodeposition of soft, high magnetic moment alloys has become the critical fabrication step in manufacturing of magnetic recording heads. The need for ultimately high magnetic moment alloys (2.4 T CoFe) and the electrodeposition process capable of delivering magnetic structures with dimension in the range of several tens of nanometers are the new tasks that have to be addressed if the f...

A review on pulse and pulse reverse techniques for electrodeposition have been attempted. Pulse electrodeposition (PED) of some metals and lloys are reported. The effects of mass, transport, electrical double layer pulse parameters and current distribution on surface roughness and orphology are presented. Applications, advantages and disadvantages of PC and PRC techniques are discussed along wi...

Electrolysis of Co(2+) in phosphate, methylphosphonate, and borate electrolytes effects the electrodeposition of an amorphous highly active water oxidation catalyst as a thin film on an inert anode. Electrodeposition of a catalytically competent species immediately follows oxidation of Co(2+) to Co(3+) in solution. Methylphosphonate and borate electrolytes support catalyst activity comparable t...
