Various iron group alloys have been electrodeposited and evaluated for properties including corrosion resistance, microstructure, electrical resistivity, magnetoresistance and other magnetic properties. Corrosion resistance depends on deposit composition and microstructure, which are controlled by solution composition and deposition variables. Maximum corrosion resistance was observed for 50Ni5...

Two-step electrochemical anodization was used for obtaining matrices based on porous anodic alumina (MPAA). Three series of experimental samples were made: 1 – PAAM with thickness 1.3–2.5 μm and 70 nm diameter, 2 70.0 50–75 diameter 3 13.5–60.0 100–200 diameter. The pore filling MPAA realized using deposition. As a result Ni nanopillars, multilayered Cu/CoNi nanowires formed. scanning electron ...

Cylindrical magnetic nanowires with large transversal magnetocrystalline anisotropy have been shown to sustain nontrivial configurations resulting from the interplay of spatial confinement, exchange, and anisotropies. Exploiting these peculiar three-dimensional (3D) spin their solitonic inhomogeneities is expected improve magnetization switching in future spintronics, such as power-saving memor...

cofe/cu multilayer nanowires were electrodeposited into anodic aluminum oxide templates prepared by a two-step mild anodization method, using the single-bath technique. nanowires with 30 nm diameter and the definite lengths were obtained. the effect of cofe layers thickness and annealing on the magnetic behavior of the multilayer nanowires was investigated. the layers thickness was controlled t...

The Fe nanowires were prepared by Ac electrodeposition method. The two steps anodized aluminum oxides (alumina) were used as templates for electrodeposition of magnetic nanowires. Sulfuric acid was used to anodize aluminum. The pours diameter and growth rate of alumina were investigated. The FeSO4 electrolyte was used for growth of nanowires. The prepared magnetic nanowires were characterized b...

Transition metal alloy electrocatalysts have sparked intense interest for their use in oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, there is almost no corresponding research on the active sites. In this study, CoNi nanoparticles embedded bamboo-like N-doped carbon nanotubes (CoNi-NCTs) as catalysts constructed by a facile pyrolysis of Prussian blue analogs were investigated. The density functional...

The effect of length variation on the magnetic properties of NiFe alloy nanowires electrodeposited into the alumina template was investigated. The diameter (45±2.5 nm) and length (~ 1.9, 7.12, 8.3, 9.5 and 13.3 µm) of the nanowires were estimated from scanning electron microscopy images. Energy dispersive spectroscopy results showed Ni3Fe7 composition of the alloy nanowire...

For Co and CoNi single layer films, the coercivity is a linear function of the inverse layer thickness and has an angular dependence of a fourfold-like symmetry although only a uniaxial anisotropy exists. For both as-prepared and post field-cooled Co/FeMn bilayers, the exchange field and the coercivity enhancement are proportional to the inverse Co thickness. For as-prepared ones, the exchange ...
