Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Physical Physical Sciences Science & Technology
In this communication, we develop a facile one-pot green strategy toward CuO-Cu2O-Cu nanorod-decorated reduced graphene oxide (CuNRs-rGO) composites by hydrothermal heating of the mixed solution of GO and Cu(OAc)(2) under basic conditions without the use of extra reducing agents. As-synthesized composites have been successfully applied in photocurrent generation in the visible spectral region.
