Nature of inclined growth in thin-layer electrodeposition under uniform magnetic fields
Electrochemical deposition (ECD) in thin cells in a vertical position relative to gravity, subject to an external uniform magnetic field, yields a growth pattern formation with dense branched morphology with branches tilted in the direction of the magnetic force. We study the nature of the inclined...

Electrochemical deposition (ECD) in thin cells in a vertical position relative to gravity, subject to an external uniform magnetic field, yields a growth pattern formation with dense branched morphology with branches tilted in the direction of the magnetic force. We study the nature of the inclined growth through experiments and theory. Experiments in ECD, in the absence of magnetic forces, reveal that a branch grows by allowing fluid to penetrate its tip and to be ejected from the sides through a pair of symmetric vortices attached to the tip. The upper vortices zone defines an arch separating an inner zone ion depleted and an outer zone in a funnel-like form with a concentrated solution through which metal ions are carried into the tip. When a magnetic field is turned on, vortex symmetry is broken, one vortex becoming weaker than the other, inducing an inclination of the funnel. Consequently, particles entering the funnel give rise to branch growth tilted in the same direction.
