Synthesis and Characterization of Copper (i) Oxide and Zinc Oxide Quantum Dot Materials and the Development of New Fluorescent Fibre Composites

Johnston J.H., Zeller A.J., Victoria University of Wellington, NZ

New fluorescent composites of Cu2O and ZnO quantum dots with wool and paper fibres for potential use in photoluminescent fabrics, packaging and labelling papers, have been developed. The fluorescent colours can be tuned by varying [...]

Synthesis and characterization of copper oxide decorated zinc oxide nanorods

Lim S.K., Hong S.H., Hwang S.H., Kim H-S, Kim S., Lee D.J., Kim H-S, Kim S., DGIST(Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science & Technology), KR

One-dimentional nanostructures in the form of nanorods, nanowires, nanofibers or nanotubes, appear as an exciting research area for their great potential of applications. Zinc oxide is an n-type semiconductor that has been well known for [...]

Preparation and Application of Copper Oxide Nanoparticles

Chang M-H, Tai C.Y-D, National Taiwan University, TW

The aim of this research was to synthesize copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles, which were further applied to prepare CuO-water nanofluid, using a spinning disk reactor (SDR). The precursor of copper oxide was first synthesized by [...]

Direct Electrochemical Reduction of CuO Nano Particles to Cu Nano Particles in NaCl Solution

Hwang G-H, Han W-K, Hong S-J, Choi J.W., Kang S-G, Hanyang University, KR

Copper nanoparticles are widely used material. However many reactive metals are difficult to produce without complex and expensive procedures. For low cost and mass production, the electrochemical reduction is a convenient technique to manufacture metal [...]

Influence of Number of Washing on the Characteristic of Nanocrystalline Copper Oxide Powders

Ramli I., Muhammad E.N., Abdullah A.H., Taufiq-Yap Y.H., Abdul Hamid S.B., Abdullah A.H., University Putra Malaysia, MY

in this, effect of number of washing on the characteristic of copper oxide catalyst has been carried out. The samples were prepared by precipitation of copper (II) nitrate trihydrate with an aqueous solution of sodium [...]
