Calcium carbonate can be found in many natural materials, such as coral and shells of various crustaceans and mollusks. The growth of its various polymorphs, aragonite, calcite and vaterite, in the presence of biological molecules, affect their organization in terms of crystalline microstructure and long range order (texture and ultrastructure). Electrodeposition was chosen in this work for its growth speed and a good control of instrumental parameters. We have selected the growth of aragonite, mimicking the texture of the nacre of Haliotis tuberculata tuberculata but with a less pronounced crystal orientation. A growth of oriented pseudo-hexagonal platelets, with a double-twinning and a relative orientation of approximately 60° to each oth...
