Abstract

The molecular and crystalline structure of a new type of nanomaterial were presented. The method consisting of two stages - physical vapor deposition from the gas phase and thermal oxidation - contains layers with Cu_xO nanostructures especially CuO nanorods. High-resolution electron transmission microscopy and infrared spectroscopy measurements allowed for the determination of the crystalline and molecular structure of examined films. HRTEM research shows that nanorods are made of CuO, while infrared spectroscopy studies confirm the existence of CuO and Cu₂O phase layers in the structure. The obtained material is widely used in various fields of science, including electronics, photovoltaics, sensors and biomedical engineering
