Optical properties of Ni and Cu nanowire arrays and Ni/Cu superlattice nanowire arrays

: In this study, Ni and Cu nanowire arrays and Ni/Cu superlattice nanowire arrays are fabricated using standard techniques such as electrochemical deposition of metals into porous anodic alumina oxide templates having pore diameters of about 50 nm. We perform optical measurements on these nanowire array structures. Optical reflectance (OR) of the as-prepared samples is recorded using an imaging...

Ni-Co Alloy and Multisegmented Ni/Co Nanowire Arrays Modulated in Composition: Structural Characterization and Magnetic Properties

Design of novel multisegmented magnetic nanowires can pave the way for the next generation of data storage media and logical devices, magnonic crystals, or in magneto-plasmonics, among other energy conversion, recovery, and storage technological applications.

Fabrication and magnetic properties of Fe–Pd nanowire arrays

Ordered 20 nm Fe–Pd nanowire arrays with different compositions have been fabricated by alternating current electrodeposition into nanoporous anodic alumina. The structural and magnetic properties of the arrays were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). When Fe content is lower than 46 at.%, Fe–Pd alloy phase wit...
