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...

The microstructure of copper layers obtained by electrodeposition in stationary, pulsed and stochastic modes on substrates was studied means scanning electron microscopy. It found that the shape applied grains differs significantly case stationary application modes. technology production electrodeposited pulse is worked out work. developed automated software hardware complex used to control pro...

One-dimensional (1D) Bi-based nanostructures are promising thermoelectric materials and, furthermore, are very interesting systems for studying physical and chemical properties in the nanoscale, owing to their anisotropic character. The main challenges in this area are to control the diameter, orientation, and alloy composition with precision, and thereby to gain ready access to junction and su...

Filling high-aspect-ratio trenches with gold is a frequent requirement in the fabrication of x-ray optics as well as micro-electronic components and other fabrication processes. Conformal electrodeposition of gold in sub-micron-width silicon trenches with an aspect ratio greater than 35 over a grating area of several square centimeters is challenging and has not been described in the literature...

The initial growth stage of the single-crystalline Sb and Co nanowires with preferential orientation was studied, which were synthesized in porous anodic alumina membranes by the pulsed electrodeposition technique. It was revealed that the initial growth of the nanowires is a three-dimensional nucleation process, and then gradually transforms to two-dimensional growth via progressive nucleation...

We have demonstrated that multicomponent carbon nanotube micropatterns, in which different nanotubes are interposed in an intimate fashion, can be prepared by pyrolytic growth of carbon nanotubes on interposed micropatterns of different metal nanoparticles generated by template-free pulsed electrodeposition of metal-containing salts onto a photolithographically prepatterned conductive surface a...
