Photocatalytic activity of Cu2O/ZnO nanocomposite for the decomposition of methyl orange under visible light irradiation
ZnO is modified by Cu2O by the process of precipitation and calcination. X-ray diffraction has shown that Cu2O/ZnO catalysts are made of highly purified cubic Cu2O and hexagonal ZnO. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy have shown that ZnO adhered to the surface of Cu2O....
