The porous silicon morphology effect on the growth of electrodeposited FeNi alloy

Morphology, structure and magnetic study of permalloy films electroplated on silicon nanowires

“…For example, S. Ouir et al [7] obtained values of the grains size between 21.5 nm and 28.3 nm for NiFe deposits on a porous silicon substrate. Also X. Zhang et al [5] observed an increase of grains size from 10.6 nm to 101.6 nm for Permalloy nanowires electrodeposited at potentials varying from -0.8 V to -1.2 V on a porous anodized aluminum oxide substrate.…”

“…R. Vasic et al [6] have prepared NiFe nanowires on Si nanopores by electrochemical etching; thereafter, they studied the dielectric relaxation of the nanostructure in high magnetic fields. S. Ouir et al [7] studied the growth of Permalloy in the macroporous and mesoporous silicon and the effect of this microstructure on the composition and the magnetic properties of the NiFe deposits. The present investigation is motivated by the lack, as far as we know, of a detailed study dealing with electrodeposed Py.…”

Structural and nanomechanical properties of porous silicon: Cheap substrate for CMOS process industry

“…This solution aimed to provide solution to reduce the cost and the fabrication process complexity. Thanks to its large surface area and the control of its layer properties through various characterizations, most of the works related to PSi as substrate have been devoted to different applications such as electronic, 7 photonic crystal sensors, 8 and magnetic sensing 9 . However, the compatibility of the PSi with industrial processes remains questionable, and the study of its mechanical characteristics should be performed while accounting this issue.…”
