FACILE AND TEMPLATE-FREE SYNTHESIS OF CuO NANOPARTICLES

Abstract

Copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles were synthesized successfully by arc discharge method in an aqueous medium. Arc discharge was ignited between two copper electrodes and an exhaustive characterization of morphology and crystalline structure of the drawn up copper oxide nanoparticles were studied. Electron microscopy analyses revealed that the grown CuO nanoparticles are irregularly shaped with nominal diameters in the interval of 10-50 nm. XRD results show the as-synthesized particles contain only CuO peaks without any impurities. The results procure a simple, cheap and responsive method for preparing single-phase CuO nanoparticles.
