Abstract:Monolithic porous Cu films are synthesized through the use of bicontinuous microemulsion (BME) to serve as a flexible template. The BME system is made up of a series of interconnected linked water and hydrocarbon phases. This one-of-a-kind structure enables precision Cu electrodeposition only in the aqueous phase, avoiding undesirable electrodeposition in the oil phase. We can fine-tune the porosity and ligament width of the resultant copper film by altering the oil phase proportion in the soft template. This … Show more
