| Abstract | ||
| Electrodeposited Ni-Fe alloys have garnered significant attention due to their tunable magnetic, mechanical, and corrosion resistance properties, making them suitable for a wide range of applications from MEMS devices to protective coatings. A key factor in optimizing these properties lies in controlling their microstructure, particularly the formation of nano-composite structures. This review article synthesizes current research on the electrodeposition of Ni-Fe alloys, focusing on the various factors influencing the development of their nano-composite architecture. We delve into the roles of plating bath parameters (e.g., electrolyte concentration, pH, temperature, additives), current density, and post-deposition treatments in dictating grain size, phase distribution, and the incorporation of secondary phases. Furthermore, we discuss characterization techniques employed to elucidate these nano-structures and highlight the interplay between processing parameters, microstructure, and resulting material properties. Finally, future directions for research in this promising field are proposed, emphasizing the potential for advanced functional materials through precise nano-composite design. | ||
