An electrodeposition process to obtain Cu–Li alloy as a function of the temperature is studied. The optimal temperature for producing sheets of a single phase of copper with lithium in solid solution, without inclusions nor voids, is determined. In fact, when the electrodeposition process is performed at a temperature of 923 K, a single phase alloy of Cu–1.4 wt.% Li with a cubic Fm3m structure with a=3.624 2 is obtained.
