Micromoulding of Sm-Co thick films

This study was motivated by the advantags of micromolding process, which couples the electrolytic growth and location of the film with a thick resin mold. This method makes it possible the achievement of micro-objects, the dimensions of which are only dependent on the resolution of the lithographic techniques used to define the resin molds. The micromolding can therefore produce metal microstructures and is compatible with MEMS technology. We have highlighted the influence of various experimental parameters in the context of the study of the electrolytic growth of samarium-cobalt in aqueous solution in a Hull cell. this study allowed us to identified several operating points resulting in samarium contents and high thicknesses up to 50% of samarium and several microns thick. In addition, a number of hypotheses have been put forward, which link the process of development and growth mechanism. We also successfully showed that it is possible to create micropatterns of several microns thick report containing Sm / (Sm + Co) relatively high (10%) and low oxygen contamination (8%).
