Study of Nanostructure Copper Oxide with Controlled Morphologies by a Simple Solution Route

Copper oxide with various morphologies, such as nanocubes, nanorods, and nanoribbons was synthesized from the H2O/C2H5OH solution of Cu(OAc)2/NEt3 with or without tetraoctylammonium bromide (TOAB) under mild conditions.
In the system of Cu(OAc)2/NEt3 (0.05 mmole : 7.9 mmole) with 0.75 mmole of TOAB in H2O/C2H5OH (10 mL : 40 mL) solution, We found that nanocubes of CuO spontaneously self-assembled into nanorods and then nanosheets with the increasing of reaction time.
Structural characterization of the CuO nanorods shows that the rod grows primarily along the [010] direction. Nanorods of CuO were also characterized by TEM, HR-TEM, SAED, and XRD.
