Copper Nanowires: The Role of Cuprous Oxide Seeds in the One‐Pot and Seeded Syntheses of Copper Nanowires (Small 9/2014). Issue 9 (May 2014) - Ye, Shengrong
Abstract On page 1771, B. J. Wiley and co‐workers report that removal of ethylenediamine from a copper nanowire synthesis leads to the rapid formation of Cu2O octahedra. These Cu2O octahedra can be used as seeds in a synthesis to control nanowire aspect ratio. Transparent conducting films are made from nanowires to examine the effect of nanowire aspect ratio on the film performance.
