ZnO particles encapsulated in porous Cu2O nanoparticle layer prepared by UV light-induced photoreduction of Cu(NO3)(2)center dot 3H(2)O over ZnO in methanol suspension
Nano Cu2O particles with size of about 7 nm were directly coated on the surface of ZnO seeds by UV light-induced photoreduction of Cu(NO3)(2) . 3H(2)O, forming Cu2O/ZnO nanocomposites with a core-shell structure.
