Preparation and properties of electrochemically deposited Cu2O thin films
Cu2O films were prepared on the surface of indium tin oxide(ITO)conductive glass using copper ace-tate and sodium acetate as electrolyte solution by electrochemical deposition method.The crystal phase,micro-morphology and optical properties of Cu2O thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer(UV-Vis).The photocurrent spectrum of Cu2O was measured under the condition of illumination,and the photoelectrochemical properties and photocata-lytic activity of methylene blue degradation of Cu2O films were evaluated.
