ENVR 31 |
| The 2007 senior class of chemical engineers at the University of California at San Diego was presented with several possible projects to study over a 20-week period. One group was given the opportunity to study the low-energy nuclear reaction (LENR) experiments conducted by SPAWAR Systems Center San Diego and to attempt replication of one of their LENR experiments. The presentation will consist of discussions of the field assisted electroplating experiments conducted by this group. Specifically the following topics will be addressed: (1) learning how to electroplate with copper efficiently ; (2) studying the effects of external electric and magnetic fields during copper electroplating; and (3) transitioning from field-assisted copper electroplating to the electrodeposition of Pd/D on Cr-39 detectors. |
