Abstract

Electrochemical deposition (ECD) of metals is a very old subject[l], which has considerable applications in the context of electroshaping or electroplating. Electrochemists and chemical engineers have long known the different growth conditions of these metal aggregates and the different parameters which drive morphological changes, at least empirically [2-4]. However, in the recent years, after the introduction of the concept of fractal aggregation[5,6], in the field of non-linear pattern formation[7,8], a lot of work has been devoted to the specific problem of growth of electrodeposits from binary electrolytes [9-51] (i.e. without supporting electrolyte). These studies aimed at understanding the morphology, on the large scale (∼1cm) of the deposits and, more specifically, the transitions between morphologies. It is the aim of this paper to review the progress which has been achieved in the past five years on this question.

61The so-called "Hecker effect" seems to have been observed independently by several authors, including Lui Lam and the eponymous Nancy Hecker. As a matter of fact, images of inhomogeneous deposits exhibiting transitions lines can be found in the literature, and the effect of impurities is so ordinary in electrochemistry that it had not received a specific name.Google Scholar
