Fe49Co33Ni18 nanowire arrays (175 nm in diameter and lengths ranging from 5 to 32μm) were fabricated into nanopores of hard-anodized aluminum oxide templates using pulsed ac electrodeposition technique. Hysteresis loop measurements indicated that increasing the length decreases coercivity and squareness values (from 274 Oe and 0.58 to200 Oe and 0.105, respective...

[Fe (tFe) nm/Cu (tCu) nm]N multilayer films were prepared using pulsed-current electrodeposition method. The role of the pulsed-current deposition and Fe and Cu layer thicknesses on the magnetic properties was investigated. The microstructure of the multilayer films is dependent on the thicknesses of both the Fe and Cu layers. The saturation magnetization of the multilayers strongly correlated ...

In this study, calcium-phosphate (Ca-P) and graphene oxide (GO)/ calcium-phosphate (Ca-P) coatings were electrodeposited with different pulsed current densities on TiO2 nanotubes. Results showed that the co-electrodeposition rate in the presence of GO, especially at low current densities of 2 and 5 mA/cm2, significantly decreased. This might be due to the large size of GO sheets as compared to ...

The CuInS(2) (CIS) nanoparticles were wrapped uniformly throughout the inner and outer walls of TNTs (TNT) by using square wave pulsed-electrodeposition. This structure enables the CuInS(2)-TiO(2) (CIS-TNT) to exhibit p-n junction diode behavior and enhanced photoelectrochemical properties.

Well-aligned ZnO nanorods were uniformly coated with a layer of CuInS2 nanoparticle photosensitizers using a tailored sequential pulsed electrodeposition. The formation of CuInS2-ZnO heterojunction with well-matched band energy alignment and the superior electron mobility in ZnO nanorods led to a remarkable 3.75 times improved photoelectrochemical performance of the electrode under visible ligh...

Multilayer nanowires tailored with alternating AuFe porous layers and Au nonporous segments were fabricated by galvanic square-wave pulsed electrodeposition from a AuFe cyanide-free electrolyte. Control of porosity and composition was achieved via modulation in pulsed time and applied current density. Nanowires with decreased porosity were observed upon increasing time of the AuFe alloy layer o...

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...
