Copper oxide thin films as solar selective absorbers were conveniently prepared by one-step chemical conversion method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-vis-NIR spectra and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra were employed to characterize the composition, structure and optical properties of thin films. The resul...
Inorganic materials with hollow and multilayer structures have attracted many interests because of their special applications. In this paper we reported a low-cost synthetic route for hollow cuprous oxide octahedra with more than one shell. Various characterizations identified the as-obtained powder as pure, uniform, and monodispersed CU2O octahedr...
