Analysis of the geometrical–probabilistic models of electrocrystallization

详细

The formation of a three-dimensional electrode deposit under potentiostatic conditions, including the stages of nucleation, growth, and overlap of growing new-phase clusters and their diffusion zones, is considered. The models of electrochemical phase formation for kinetics- and diffusion-controlled growth are analyzed, and the correctness of the approximations used in these models is estimated. The possibility of application of these models to an analysis of the electrodeposition of silicon from molten salts is discussed.
