Abstract:
We report our results on producing and characterizing segmented metallic nanowires by a template based method. Segmented Cu/Ni nanowires were electrochemically grown in the nanopores of an alumina template. The electrodeposition technique is extensively used in production of magnetic thin films and nanostructures, due to some advantages such as low cost, minimum waste of components, rapid production, and simplicity. A special home-made electrochemical cell was used, which allows for a better control of the deposition conditions. Morfology and crystalline structure of the nanowires were characterized by SEM and XRD, to determine the effects of the deposition potential.
