Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for beneficially affecting the surface morphology of electrically conductive materials using electrochemistry are described. The systems and methods for beneficially affecting the surface morphology of electrically conductive materials use a bimodal process in which a first current type (alternating or direct) is applied across an electrolyte between an electrode and a workpiece followed by applying a second current type different from the first current type is used. The bimodal process may be repeated one or more times.
