Abstract

A detailed analysis of the optimum regimes of pulsed current metal electrodeposition into pores of porous anodic alumina PAA is presented. A simple model based on cathodic and anodic current transients is developed. The model is based on a simplified equivalent circuit consisting of two capacities related to the barrier and porous parts of porous anodic alumina. Nanowires of Cd, Zn, In, Ni, Co, Ag, and Cu were embedded into PAA by pulsed electrodeposition using an asymmetric rectangular ac signal. Deposited metal nanowires were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), optical spectroscopy, Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), and X-ray diffractometry (XRD).
