Abstract

The possibility of using the Cahn–Hilliard theory in the process of electrodeposition of nanostructures is studied. A correlation between the microscopic parameters included in the calculation formulas and the experimental kinetic coefficients is found. The theoretical results can explain the choice of the optimal parameters of electrochemical deposition.
