Abstract

In this study, electrodeposition was employed to produce Cu-Ag multilayered nanocomposites using a single-bath cyanide solution. The silver and the copper layers were applied by electroless deposition and galvanostatic electrodeposition methods, respectively. The as-deposited composite showed a very high strength, which was increased upon annealing at 104°C. Annealing at 149°C caused the strength to drop to a level comparable to the strength of electrodeposited pure copper specimens. In this paper, the effect of heat treatment on the mechanical properties and structure of Cu-Ag multilayered nanocomposites is discussed.
