Abstract

The electrical, magnetic and mechanical properties of bulk nanocrystalline nickel produced by pulse-electrodeposition are reviewed and discussed in the context of nanoprocessing as a distinct form of grain boundary engineering to develop soft magnetic materials with improved performance characteristics.
