研究目的
Investigating the composition, morphology, and dissolution behavior of an Au-Ag nanoporous structure formed by electrodeposition and dealloying.
研究成果
The study confirmed that dealloying of Au-Ag films involves three processes: whole film dissolution, defects dissolution at the grain boundary, and Ag-selective dissolution. The amount of Ag decreased after dealloying, and a highly concentrated Ag layer was generated at the surface. Higher anodic potentials resulted in larger current densities and the generation of more nanopores.
研究不足
The study focused on Au-Ag systems and may not be directly applicable to other bimetallic systems. The effects of varying experimental conditions beyond the studied ranges were not explored.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved electrodeposition of Au-Ag films on Si wafers with sputtered Au or Pt seed layers, followed by annealing and dealloying processes. The relationship between electrolyte composition, morphology, and dealloying mechanism was investigated.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Samples were prepared with varying bath compositions and annealing temperatures. Composition and morphology were analyzed using ICP-MS, GDOES, and FE-SEM.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included an electrochemical analyzer (HZ-7000, Hokuto Denko), FE-SEM (FESEM S4800, Hitachi High-Technologies), ICP-MS (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and GDOES (JY-5000RF, HORIBA). Materials included HAuCl4·4H2O, AgNO3, thiourea, and H2SO
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Au-Ag films were electroplated at -0.7 V vs. Ag/AgCl for 0.5 h, annealed at temperatures from 50 to 150 °C, and dealloyed in 0.1 M HNO3 solution. Anodic evaluation was performed to study dissolution properties.
5:7 V vs. Ag/AgCl for 5 h, annealed at temperatures from 50 to 150 °C, and dealloyed in 1 M HNO3 solution. Anodic evaluation was performed to study dissolution properties.
Data Analysis Methods:
5. Data Analysis Methods: Composition and depth profile were analyzed using ICP-MS and GDOES. Morphology was characterized by FE-SEM. Dissolution properties were evaluated through anodic polarization measurements.
