title: Electrochemical synthesis of cobalt hydroxide films with tunable interlayer spacings.
abstract: An electrochemical synthetic condition is developed to produce cobalt hydroxide films with significantly increased basal spacings (d(001)>or= 25.0 A) by incorporating anionic surfactants (i.e. sodium dodecyl sulfate and 1-hexadecanesulfonate) into the interlayer regions via electrodeposition.
