Abstract: Embodiments of electrodeposited current collectors and their methods of use and manufacturer described. For example, in one embodiment, an electrochemical power cell includes an anode including a first current collector and an anode active material deposited on the first current collector. The electrochemical power cell also includes a cathode including a second current collector and a cathode active material deposited on the second current collector. At least one of the first current collector and the second current collector is an electrodeposited aluminum foil. In another embodiment, a current collector includes a free standing foil made from electrodeposited aluminum.

Abstract: Metal surface pretreatments using ionic liquids prior to electroplating are disclosed. The surface treatments include forming an activated metal substrate surface by removing any naturally formed metal oxide layers formed on the surfaces of the metal substrates. According to some embodiments, the surface treatments include exposing the metal substrate to a non-aqueous ionic liquid. In some embodiments, an electrical current is applied to the metal substrate to assist removal of the metal oxide layer. The electrical current can be a pulsed anodic current. After activating the surface, a metal layer can be deposited on the activated surface. In some embodiments, the metal layer is electrodeposited in the same ionic liquid used to form the activated surface. The resultant metal coating is resistant to scratching and peeling.

Abstract: Coated articles and methods for applying coatings are described. In some cases, the coating can exhibit desirable properties and characteristics such as durability, corrosion resistance, and high conductivity. The articles may be coated, for example, using an electrodeposition process.

Abstract: Coated articles and methods for applying coatings are described. The article may include a base material and a coating comprising silver formed thereon. In some embodiments, the coating comprises a silver-based alloy, such as a silver-tungsten alloy. The coating may, in some instances, include at least two layers.
