Abstract:Nanostructured metallic multilayers in the electrodeposition of copper can be spontaneously synthetized when the system is kept far from thermodynamic equilibrium. We have focused on the understanding of how blocking agents, mainly induced by strong adsorption, can tune the thickness of these self-organized layers, therefore, altering the total surface area. For this purpose, we perturbed the electrodeposition of copper on acidic media with small amounts of o-phenanthroline (phen). Indeed, the addition of phen… Show more
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.
