Experimental investigation on the effect of ligands on copper(I)oxide/copper(II)oxide nanocrystal growth

Nano-scale copper oxide play an important role in optoelectronics, photovoltaic, and catalytic applications due to its unique properties. The controlled synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) has been attributed to the use of capping ligands which binds to NP surface, thus limiting NP size growth and r...
