Fabrication of Ag nanoparticles on a Cu-substrate with excellent superhydrophobicity, anti-corrosion, and photocatalytic activity

The superhydrophobic surface of silver metal on Cu-substrate (Cu@Ag-SHS) is successfully fabricated via a chemical etching process having fern leaves-like morphology of the nanoparticles of silver metal. The fabricated product is characterized by PXRD, EDX, SEM, and XPS techniques. Moreover, electro...
