Electrodeposition at 75 degrees C and also a combined hydrothermal-electrochemical method to obtain hematite are presented. Both acidic and neutral plating solutions were used for the depositions. Ferric oxyhydroxide is produced by electrodeposition at 75 degrees C and converted to hematite phase after annealing. Hydrothermal-electrodeposition at 130 degrees C results in formation of hematite phase directly. The effect of temperature, deposition solution and cerium ion amount on the morphology and physical properties of hematite films are characterized.pdfElectrochemistryJournal Article1938-6737https://doi.org/10.1149/05819.0055ecst339482800007N/ANOIR00336
