A Study on Mechanism of the Co-Ni Alloy Nanowires Electrodeposited on the PCT Templates

The Co-Ni nanowires were electrodeposited on the polycarbonate template (PCT). It is observed that the process is conducted in three stages including; nucleation of nanowires, growth in steady state regime and covering of template surface. Furthermore, it is concluded that the electrodeposition is affected by mass transport restriction and is under diffusion control. The structure was observed by TEM.
