One-Step Solvothermal Method to Prepare Ag/Cu(2)O Composite With Enhanced Photocatalytic Properties

Ag/Cu(2)O microstructures with diverse morphologies have been successfully synthesized with different initial reagents of silver nitrate (AgNO(3)) by a facile one-step solvothermal method. Their structural and morphological characteristics were carefully investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (X...
