Nanometric Cu-Co multilayers electrodeposited on indium-tin oxide glass

In the present work we report on the properties of Cu-Co nanometric multila yers electrodeposited on indium-tin oxide (ITO) glass using a single electr olyte and the pulse potential technique. We investigated the effect of the pulse potentials on the magnetism and magnetoresistance. The ITO glass subs trate allows the deposition of the multilayers directly on it and the chara cterization of their properties without separating them from the substrate. Optimal pulse potential ranges are characterized for both copper and cobal t deposition. The multilayers have a high magnetization and a large magneto resistance ratio.
