Fabrication and Characterization of Copper Micropillars with Hydrophobic Surfaces via Light-Induced Electrodeposition
A light-induced electrodeposition system was developed to study the fabrication of copper micropillars. The effects of electrode gap and hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thickness were systematically investigated. The results show that the electrode gap strongly influences pillar morphology, deposition rate, and diameter. An appropriate gap leads to dense and uniform microstructures, as confirmed by cross-sectional analysis. The thickness of the a-Si:H layer also plays a key role: thicker layers enhance deposition efficiency, improve structural uniformity, and increase surface hydrophobicity. Using this approach, copper surfaces with micro/nanostructures and strong hydrophobic properties were successfully fabricated, providing a potential strategy for functional surface design in microscale applications.
期刊介绍:
Electrochimica Acta is an international journal. It is intended for the publication of both original work and reviews in the field of electrochemistry. Electrochemistry should be interpreted to mean any of the research fields covered by the Divisions of the International Society of Electrochemistry listed below, as well as emerging scientific domains covered by ISE New Topics Committee.
