Porous InP templates were prepared by anodic etching of InP substrates with different electrical conductivities using an environmentally friendly electrolyte. Ni nanoparticles were directly deposited into the templates by pulsed electroplating without additional intermediary layers. The technology is expected to have applications in sensing and photocatalysis, as well as exploring plasmonic and magnetic properties.
Porous InP templates possessing a thickness of up to 100 mu m and uniformly distributed porosity were prepared by anodic etching of InP substrates exhibiting different electrical conductivities, involving an environmentally friendly electrolyte. Ni nanoparticles were successfully directly deposited by pulsed electroplating into prefabricated InP templates without any additional deposition of intermediary layers. The parameters of electrodeposition, including the pulse amplitude, pulse width and interval between pulses, were optimized to reach a uniform metal deposition covering the inner surface of the nanopores. The electrochemical dissolution of n-InP single crystals was investigated by measuring the current-voltage dependences, while the Ni-decorated n-InP templates have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The proposed technology is expected to be of interest for sensing and photocatalytic applications, as well as for the exploration of their plasmonic and magnetic properties.
