Q2. How can a metal be reduced at high temperature?
The metal in a stable complex can be reduced only at high temperature or by decreasing the activation barrier by means of a catalyst.
Q3. What is the effect of the heating of the solution on the deposition of local structures?
The heating of the solution will cause the reduction in the bulk of thesolution, while the deposition of local structures on the surface will not take place.
Q4. What is the effect of the presence of gases on the deposition of copper?
The presence of gases is a serious obstacle for laser deposition of metals because they lead to defocusing of the laser beam and interfere with the diffusion of reactants to the reaction zone.
Q5. What is the LMCT-excited state of copper(II)?
It should be noted that the photoreduction exhibits a low quantum yield because the majority of LMCT-excited copper(II) complexes relax to the ground electronic state, and only a small part of these complexes dissociates to form a copper(I) compound.
Q6. What is the LMCT excitation of copper(II) complexes?
For many copper(II) complexes,108, 109, 117 ± 130 the LMCT excitation was shown to result in the reduction of copper(II) to copper(I) and oxidation of the ligand.
Q7. What is the quantum yield of the copper(II) complex?
it should be emphasized that the quantum yield of photoreduction of all chloride complexes of copper(II) is 510%, whereas some bromide complexes of copper(II) have the quantum yield of photoreduction of 100%.
Q8. What is the chemistry of the laser-induced deposition of copper?
The laser-induced deposition of metals holds promise in different fields, such as microelectronics, micromechanics, the design of various sensors and detectors, as well as catalysts for the selective organic synthesis.
Q9. What are the alternative pathways of photochemical redox reactions of copper(II) complex?
Three alternative pathways of photochemical redox reactions of copper(II) complexes were proposed:100where Solv is the solvent, L and L0 are ligands other than the solvent, Lox, L 0 ox and Solvox are oxidized forms of the ligands and the solvent, respectively.
Q10. What is the reason for the impossibility of activation of MgO?
The impossibility of activation of MgO is most likely attributed to chemical instability of MgO in an alkaline copper plating solution due to the formation of Mg(OH)2.
Q11. What is the quantum yield of the copper(II) in acetonitrile?
Chloride complexes of copper(II) in acetonitrile are also characterized by low quantum yields of the copper(I) formation (0%± 13%).
Q12. What are the key trends in the development of laser-induced deposition techniques?
Laser-induced deposition techniques and mechanisms of chemical and laser-induced deposition of local copper and other metal structures onto the dielectric surface are considered.
Q13. What is the total solvation number of copper halides?
The total solvation number of copper halides is smaller than that of copper sulfate due to the enhancement of acido complexation.
