The Synthesis of Highly Aligned Cupric Oxide Nanowires by Heating Copper Foil

We have investigated the effects of grain size and orientation of copper substrates for the growth of cupric oxide nanowires by thermal oxidation method. Long, less-roughness, high-density, and aligned cupric oxide nanowires have been synthesized by heating (200) oriented copper foils with small gra...
