Abstract
Ni/Cu nanowires were fabricated by electrodeposition in potentiostatic mode, into the pores of polycarbonate membrane. In present work metallic multilayer nanowires were deposited in polycarbonate membrane having pore size of 400 nm. It is found that the growth of nanowires is not constant, it varies with the pH values of electrolyte used for the deposition. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed formed nanowires are cylindrical in shapes, dense and homogeneous for low pH depostion. X-ray diffraction technique is used to study the morphology and structure of fabricated Ni/Cu nanowires and found nanowires have FCC structure. An energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) is used to study the composition of multilayer nanowires. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy has been carried out to study the in-situ growth process of multilayer nanowires.
