Platinum Electrodeposition for Supported ALD Templated Foam Hohlraum Liners
- Lawrence Livermore National Lab. (LLNL), Livermore, CA (United States)
Two commercially available platinum plating solutions (Platanex III and Platanex Luna) were evaluated for the electrodeposition of platinum layers on gold hohlraums and cylindrically shaped silver-gold ingots. The successful deposition of thin Pt layers on gold hohlraums as well as thick Pt layers on silver-gold alloys will allow for the integration of atomic layer deposition templated foam inside a hohlraum. We found that when the manufacturer’s recommendations for the Pt plating solutions were used, the coatings obtained were unacceptable because of cracking, poor adhesion, or thin and powdery Pt deposits. Therefore, alternative plating parameters were investigated, and the conditions resulting in acceptable coatings are reported here.
