Nanoscale Synthesis and Characterization Laboratory Overview for FY2007

High strength Au-Cu alloy coatings are an option for potential use in doubleshell ignition-capsule designs. It’s well known that the reduction of grain size to the nanoscale increases the strength of metal alloys. The use of pulsed electrodeposition provides a path to produce nanocrystalline AuCu alloys. This process method is further developed to produce a concentration gradient through the thickness of the electrodeposit.
