The crystallographic structure and surface morphology of Fe films electrodeposited from three kinds of baths, sulfate, chloride and sulfamate baths, were studied by SEM, XRD. The surface morphology and crystallographic orientation of Fe films deposited on a Ni-P amorphous substrate were varied with electrodeposition bath composition and conditions. The {211} plane appeared to be mainly a preferential orientation of films deposited from all baths examined in this study.
An Au-Co alloy with an extensive composition range was electrodeposited from a gold sulfite and cobalt sulfate mixture. The Au-Co alloy electrodeposits were analyzed by XRD and TEM and the relationship between the phase and thermal equilibrium diagrams was investigated. The Au-Co alloy electrodeposits formed a solid solution over an extensive composition range. It was also revealed that the composition of the electrodeposited Au-Co alloy was equal to that of the quenched phase at a high temperature, about 950 C.
Assistant ProfessorThe crystallographic structure and surface morphology of Fe films electrodeposited in three kinds of baths were studied in detail by SEM and XRD. Fe deposits were prepared in a sulfate bath, chloride bath and sulfamate bath. The surface morphology of Fe deposits on Ni-P amorphous substrate were found to vary according to the electrodeposition bath composition. The (211) plane appeared to be the dominant orientation of deposited films for all baths examined in this study.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
