Abstract

The effect of bath temperature on rotation of c-axis of hcp cobalt vis-a-vis the nanowire axis of 100 nm diameter Co nanowires electrodeposited in polycarbonate membranes is studied. While the NWs deposited at 25°C are of the polycrystalline hcp structure, the NWs deposited at 50°C showed preferred orientation (PO) for planes along the nanowire axis. In the nanowires deposited at 60°C, the PO changes from to (0002) along the nanowire axis. The changes in orientation are associated with the hydrogen co-deposition induced alterations in nucleation and growth mechanism at different temperatures.
