Abstract:The copper oxide (CuO) nanostructures are synthesized via facile oxidation of Cu foil in an aqueous KOH solution at room temperature. A precleaned Cu foil immersed in a 0.1 M aqueous KOH solution for different time periods (36–72 h) systematically converts its surface into nanochained to rice husk morphology and then agglomerated dense nanoclusters. The impact of immersion time on the morphology and consequently supercapacitor performance is studied. The CuO nanostructure synthesized at an immersion time of 60… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
