TLDR
In this paper, the surface morphology varies with the change in overpotential, but not with change in substrate, and the crystal shape is independent of the applied over-potential but varies with bath chemistry or choice of substrate.
Abstract
Copper has been electrodeposited on copper (FCC) and mild steel (BCC) substrates from acidic sulphate bath with and without cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide at 0.25, 2, 6 and 9 V. It is found that the surface morphology varies with the change in overpotential, but not with the change in substrate. On the contrary, the crystal shape is found to be independent of the applied overpotential, but varies with the bath chemistry or choice of substrate.

Estimation of Zwitterionic Surfactant Response in Electroless Composite Coating and Properties of Ni–P–CuO (Nano)Coating

TL;DR: In this article, Zwitterionic surfactant was introduced into the composite coating for the first time to increase the suspension of nanoparticles effectively during the coating process, which reduced the intermolecular attraction between the solid and liquid interfaces and eliminated the binding of the nanoparticles with the hydrogen gas bubbles.

The effect of hydrogen codeposition on the morphology of copper electrodeposits. I. The concept of effective overpotential

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of hydrogen codeposition on the morphology of copper electrodeposits was studied and the dependences of the overall current and the volume of evolved hydrogen on the quantity of electricity used were plotted and the average current efficiencies of the evolved hydrogen were derived from them.

Morphologies of copper deposits obtained by the electrodeposition at high overpotentials

Abstract: Morphologies of copper deposits obtained at overpotentials belonging to the plateau of the limiting diffusion current density and at higher overpotentials were examined by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) technique. Copper dendrites are formed at overpotentials belonging to the plateau of the limiting diffusion current density. The shape of copper dendrites depends on the electrodeposition overpotential. At higher overpotentials (800 and 1000 mV) and larger values of current densities, porous and very disperse copper deposits were obtained. These morphologies were a consequence of a very vigorous hydrogen evolution at these electrodeposition overpotentials. Also, the obtained copper structures consisted of agglomerates of copper grains. The size of copper grains is a function of the overpotential of electrodeposition, thus approaching to nano-sized dimensions is achieved when the electrodeposition overpotential is increased.
