The cobalt-nickel/copper multilayer films were prepared by electrodeposition process in sulfate solution using a three electrode cell. Cyclic voltammetry and double chronoampermetry techniques were utilized to characterize the multilayer system and to obtain the nucleation and growth mechanism. The cyclic voltammograms determined the reduction potential range of the three components and also clearly emphasized that electrodeposition of cobalt-nickel alloy was controlled by a kinetic process, while copper ions were reduced with diffusion-controlled mechanism. These results were confirmed with those which were extracted from the chronoampermetry curves. In addition, the current transients revealed that nucleation mechanism was a typical three-dimensional nucleation process. The Atomic Force Microscope images (AFM) of these multilayers also confirmed the three-dimensional nucleation mechanism. The compositional analysis of these multilayers was carried out by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) methods. The bulk and surface compositional analysis both revealed that the amount of Copper component within the cobalt-nickel layers is less than 3%.

ABSTRACTThin films derived from nanocrystal cores and functionalized linkers provide large surface-to-volume ratio and three-dimensional ligand framework. This paper describes the results of an investigation of the interfacial ion fluxes associated with redox reactivity and structural properties of such films using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical quartz-crystal nanobalance, surface infrared reflection spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Films from gold nanocrystals of 2 nm core sizes and 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid were studied as a model system. First, the film coated on electrode surface displays redox-like voltammetric waves characteristic of the deprotonation-reprotonation of the carboxylic acid groups in the nanostructured network. This process is accompanied by mass changes. Secondly, the film exhibits capability for the complexation of copper ions via the nanostructured carboxylate framework. This process is also accompanied by interfacial fluxes of electrolyte cations across the electrode | film | electrolyte interface which compensate electrostatically the fixed negative charges in the reduction process.

AbstractNickel aluminum layered double hydroxide (NiAl LDH) with nitrate in its interlayer is investigated as a negative electrode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The effect of the potential range (i.e., 0.01–3.0 V and 0.4–3.0 V vs. Li+/Li) and of the binder on the performance of the material is investigated in 1 M LiPF6 in EC/DMC vs. Li. The NiAl LDH electrode based on sodium alginate (SA) binder shows a high initial discharge specific capacity of 2586 mAh g−1 at 0.05 A g−1 and good stability in the potential range of 0.01–3.0 V vs. Li+/Li, which is better than what obtained with a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF)-based electrode. The NiAl LDH electrode with SA binder shows, after 400 cycles at 0.5 A g−1, a cycling retention of 42.2% with a capacity of 697 mAh g−1 and at a high current density of 1.0 A g−1 shows a retention of 27.6% with a capacity of 388 mAh g−1 over 1400 cycles. In the same conditions, the PVDF-based electrode retains only 15.6% with a capacity of 182 mAh g−1 and 8.5% with a capacity of 121 mAh g−1, respectively. Ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ex situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) reveal a conversion reaction mechanism during Li+ insertion into the NiAl LDH material. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and XPS have been combined with the electrochemical study to understand the effect of different cutoff potentials on the Li-ion storage mechanism.

Ionic liquids are critical reagents for science and technical processes nowadays. Metals are the most used reagents in the industry. It is crucial to have a deeper understanding of how ionic liquids and metals could interact. In this article the interaction of those two families of compounds is accessed. The dissolution (reaction) of metals with ionic liquids is studied, namely the influence of temperature, redox potential, and availability of an oxidant in the process. The final state achieved by the iron metal samples was also addressed by Mössbauer spectroscopy.

Diffraction Patterns

Heteroepitaxial growth of Ge on Si(100) has been accomplished using remote plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition at 300*#x00B0;C. Reconstructed surfaces with diffraction patterns showing non-uniform intensity variations along the lengths of the integral order streaks are observed during the first 100 Å of deposit. This observation of an atomically rough surface during the initial stages of growth is an indication of three-dimensional growth. As the epitaxial growth proceeds, the diffraction patterns become uniform with extensive streaking on both the integral and fractional order streaks. Subsequent growth, therefore, takes place in a layer-by-layer, two-dimensional mode. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of the early nucleation stages, less than 80 Å, show that there is uniform coverage with no evidence of island formation.

To elucidate the ionization dynamics, in particular the vibrational distribution, of H 2 O +(Ã) produced by photoionization and the Penning ionization of H 2 O and D 2 O with He *(2 3S) atoms, Franck–Condon factors (FCFs) were given for the [Formula: see text] ionization, and the transition probabilities were presented for the [Formula: see text] emission. The FCFs were obtained by quantum vibrational calculations using the three-dimensional potential energy surfaces (PESs) of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] electronic states. The global PESs were determined by the multi-reference configuration interaction calculations with the Davidson correction and the interpolant moving least squares method combined with the Shepard interpolation. The obtained FCFs exhibit that the [Formula: see text] state primarily populates the vibrational ground state, as its equilibrium geometry is almost equal to that of [Formula: see text], while the bending mode (ν2) is strongly enhanced for the H 2 O +(Ã) state; the maximums in the population of H 2 O + and D 2 O + are approximately v2 = 11–12 and 15–17, respectively. These results are consistent with the distributions observed by photoelectron spectroscopy. Transition probabilities for the [Formula: see text] system of H 2 O + and D 2 O + show that the bending progressions consist primarily of the [Formula: see text] emission, with combination bands from the (1, v′2 = 4–8, 0) level being next most important.
