Notes:
A study of the different stages of the electroless deposition of copper on carbon nanofibers activated firstly by a chemical treatment of the carbon nano fiber and secondly by a two-stepmethod has been performed from both a chemical and a morphological point of view. Thecombination of XPS measurements and scanning electron microscopy imaging has allowedoptimizing the 2 different stage conditions. On a first hand, the different oxide concentration andtreatment time of the carbon nano fibers and on a second hand the different conditions of thesensibilisation (Sn bath), activation (Pd bath) and coating (Cu bath) have ben studied. The controlof the homogeneity and thickness of copper thin films on carbon nano fiber can be obtained andfurther more sintered in order to obtain fully dense materials
