What is XPS and SEM characterization of electrodeposited transition metals on zirconia about?

The structure and chemical composition of electrochemically deposited cobalt, copper and cobalt q copper on zirconia Ž . Ž . have been investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy XPS , scanning electron microscopy SEM and scanning Ž . Auger microscopy SAM methods. It has been established that as-deposited metal crystallites are mainly formed on the macroconcavities of an electrochemically roughened SS 1.4301 substrate. In the facet zones, the crystallites are much smaller and have a good dispersion. In this case, the cobalt on the surface is present as Co 2q , while copper is found as Cu q . The deposited metal crystallites show no substantial changes in structure after thermal oxidation, which leads to the formation of considerably thicker oxide layers on the metal crystallites where cobalt and copper are in the Co 3q nd Cu 2q states. The cobalt and copper oxides obtained on ZrO are characterized by good adhesion and cause no change in the 2 specific surface area of porous zirconia films. Modification of the structure, composition and dispersion of the oxide systems under consideration is promising, with a view to their application as thin porous inorganic catalytic films.
