Abstract

It has been shown to be extremely beneficial to employ power ultrasound to assist electrochemical processes. Considerable mass transport has been demonstrated with the application of ultrasound. The magnetic microstructure, magnetic phase, and orientation images show better magnetic particle deposits in the presence of a sonication environment. Furthermore, deposits with ultrasound show permanent dipole moment magnetization. Hence, Ni film synthesis in presence of ultrasound may open new heights for hard disk drives.
