Abstract

We have grown extremely flat (2D) electrodeposited copper leaves that exhibit ramified patterns. These patterns are stable and can be withdrawn from the solution. A fractal analysis based on correlation function and branch counting was carried out. Also, x-ray and SEM pictures give insight into the fractal structure of this new type of aggregates and help to find the lower crossover to nonfractal compact substructure.
