  • Publication number: 20220081798
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include a system for depositing a layered nanolaminate alloy including a controller for an electrodeposition process that includes a waveform synthesizer circuit configured to generate a complex waveform signal corresponding to a desired electrodeposition waveform to be output from an electrodeposition power supply. The controller also includes a synthesizer control circuit configured to control the waveform synthesizer circuit. Based at least in part on a recipe having information related to the electrodeposition process, the synthesizer control circuit controls the generation of the complex waveform signal by modulating in real-time at least one of a waveform shape, a frequency, an amplitude, an offset, a slew, a wavelength, a phase, a velocity, and a derivative of the complex waveform signal. The controller further includes a controller output circuit configured to transmit the complex waveform signal to an input of the electrodeposition power supply.
