The thermal conductivity of CuNi alloys grown by pulsed electrodeposition is reduced the nanostructuration to a value 9.0 ± 0.9 W m?1 K?1 due incorporation saccharine in electrolyte which allowed reduction crystallite size.

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...

Highly oriented [1 1 0] Bi2Te3 films were obtained by pulsed electrodeposition. The structure, composition, and morphology of these films were characterized. The thermoelectric figure of merit (zT), both parallel and perpendicular to the substrate surface, were determined by measuring the Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity in each direction. At 300 K, the in-...

The synthesis of atomic metal (gold and nickel) clusters by pulsed galvanostatic electrodeposition on nanoporous alumina is presented. The method allows the production of clusters with an average diameter of 0.7 nm for gold and 1.1 nm for nickel, while the size can be controlled through the current density applied. This strategy represents a simple and efficient method for the construction of h...

Pulsed electrodeposition of polyaniline (PANI) allows the fabrication of flexible, electrically conductive, nonwoven PANI-carbon nanotube (PANI-CNT) composite fabrics. They possess specific tensile strength and a modulus of toughness higher than that of aluminum matrix composites, titanium and aluminum alloys, steels, and many other structural materials. Electrochemical tests show that these na...

Copper indium diselenide thin films have been prepared onto ITO (In2O3:Sn) substrates by a newly developed pulsed electrodeposition method. The proposed scheme consists of a cyclically repeated pulsed potential sequence at the corresponding deposition potentials of elemental Cu, Se and In. When the potential is stepped back to the initial Cu electrodeposition potential after a full cycle to sta...
