Magnetic field has been applied during electrodeposition for the preparation of AuPt particles. With the increase of the magnetic flux density under constant current density, the grain size decreases from - 1μm to 200nm and the activity of the AuPt catalyst increases. The magnetic field oriented vertical to the electric field has a promotion effect on increasing the catalytic ability of AuPt/carbon electrode. By pulse plating, the grain size decreases to about 100nm. By adjusting parameters of the electric field and the magnetic field, controllable in-situ preparation of AuPt catalyst with various morphology and catalytic activity could be achieved.展开更多

The introduction of H2O2 restrains the evolution of H2 and improves the adhesive strength between coatings and substrate. The results of pulse electrodeposition show that the relaxation time of the pulse is beneficial to growth of HAP because it makes ions diffuse from bulk to the surface of electrode and reduces concentration polarization in the next pulse time. It is beneficial to the increase of the duty circle of the pulse for deposition of HAP, but the result is not good if it is increased excessively. With increasing potential, it is good for the growth of HAP coatings. If the potential is too high, it is easy for HAP coatings to drop off during the process of electrodeposition under too intensive polarization, such as -1.0 V (vs SCE), and there is not many coatings on the substrate. The combination of pulse electrodeposition and addition of hydrogen peroxide can assuredly improve the physico-chemical properties of hydroxyapatite coatings.展开更多

The most suitable pulse potential range for co-deposition is found to be from -0.55 to -0.75 V (vs SCE) from linear potential scanning curve. The electrodeposited films were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS). The annealing effects on electrodeposited precursors were investigated. And the influence of pulse parameters on film quality was studied. The chalcopyrite phase CuInSe2 films with smooth surface and stoichiometric composition are obtained at a pulse potential from -0.65 to -0.7 V (vs SCE), a pulse period of 1-9 ms with a duty cycle of 33% and annealing treatment.展开更多
