Abstract
Zinc nanoparticles were grown within gel-derived silica films by applying a direct current voltage. Pattern formation of metallic Zn was studied as a function of applied voltage and metal-silica ratio. Average particle size varied from 5.2 to 20.2 nm by changing the applied voltage and silica concentration. It was found that the transition from fractal to dendritic morphology was possible due to crystalline anisotropy. From high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images and X-ray diffraction pattern a possible model is proposed to explain this observation.
