Electrodeposition of Iron Nanowires

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Iron NWs were electrodeposited inside the nanopores of a polycarbonate membrane supplied by Sterlitech. Before the electrodeposition, an Au thin film was thermally evaporated on one side of the template to use it as a working electrode. The electrolyte was composed of 0.5 M iron sulfate heptahydrate (Fe2SO4∙7H2O) and 0.5 M boric acid (H3BO3), both supplied by Panreac. The pH of the electrolyte was adjusted to a pH of 2.5 by dropping sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to the solution. The synthesis was carried out in a three-electrode vertical cell with a Pt mesh as a counter electrode and an Ag/AgCl electrode as reference. The Fe NWs were synthesized with a constant potential of −1.15 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) which is a growth rate of 12.5 nm/s. After electrodeposition, the template was removed using dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) from Sigma-Aldrich, and the NWs were deposited onto Si wafers or glass coverslips for characterization.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
