The Electrodeposition of Rhenium and Its Alloys

Abstract

The objectives of this research are to develop an understanding of the mechanism that governs the electrodeposition of Re and its alloys. These objectives have been accomplished through a 5 year, 3 investigator, bi-national collaboration between researchers at the University of Houston and Tel Aviv University. In addition to providing significant advancement into the understanding of electro- and electroless deposition of a strategically important material, we have gained insight into the complex interactions between bath constituents and the substrate. Some of these interactions were first predicted by new quantum level computational methods developed within this project, and then verified experimentally.
