Nanowires in anodic alumina template were fabricated by electrodeposition method. It has been investigated that synthesis of nanowires is possible by using both a.c and d.c electrodeposition. The nanowires obtained by using a.c electrodeposition were elongated and more stable where as nanowires fabricated by using d.c electrodeposition were less stable. Optimum time attained for the synthesis of nanowires in a.c depostion was 5 minutes where as in case of d.c deposition nanocrystals of different shapes were obtained due to less stability. Average diameter of nanopores obtained in anodized aluminium was 150 nm by using phosphoric acid as a electrolyte. Length of nanowires obtained by using a.c and d.c electrodeposition was 683 nm and 640 nm respectively.","PeriodicalId":14488,"journal":{"name":"IOSR Journal of Applied Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76322784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After their pre-optimization, the software was run by using Single Point, LDA, Default, Relativity, Spin Orbit, ZORA, Unrestricted, None, Collinear, Nosym using TZP or TZ2P Basis sets in ESR/EPR/EFG/ZFS Program to obtain ESR parameters: g11, g22, g33, giso, a11, a22, a33, Aten. More ESR parameters (gn. Aten, ZFS) and NQR parameters {, q11, q22, q33, NQCC} were obtained by replacing Spin Orbit by scalar command in a new ADF Input. The software was, then, run using the “NMR Program” with Single Point, Default, None, Collinear, Nosym using the same Basis sets leaving unrestricted command blank to obtain Shielding Constants (σM, σ 13 C, σ 17 O), Chemical Shifts (δM, δ 13 C, δ 17 O), two diamagnetic, four paramagnetic and four spin orbit contributing terms in σ values of the constituents. The software was also run to obtain IR frequencies of normal modes of the (3n-6) fundamental vibration bands of the complexes. Five parameters: σ, δ, g.Aten, , NQCC of 14 N; four parameters: σ, δ, g.Aten, of 13 C and three parameters: σ, δ, g.Aten, of 1 H corroborated to infer that the 30 Carbons were of 5 different types, the 24 Hydrogens were of 4 different types but the 6 Nitrogens were of the same type spatially in the three studied complexes.
