Fabrication and characterization of novel nanostructured copper oxide films via a facile solution route

摘要

Nanostructured CuO film was prepared using glass or stainless steel slices as substrate via a simple ammonia-assisted solution route at 60 ℃. The obtained CuO film was made up of well-crystallized nanosheets of 50-360 nm in thickness and 0.7-4.5 μm in width. The reaction time and the substrate have significant effects not only on the thickness, width, arrangement of the nanosheets but also on the morphology and the thickness of the films. The CuO film was characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, IR, and Raman spectroscopy techniques.
