Cu2O/CuO nanowires (NWs) were grown by thermal oxidation of copper sheet at various temperatures. The thickness and surface roughness of the oxide layers were measured using profilometer, and it was found that they increase with increasing growth temperature. X-ray diffraction patterns revealed the formation of mixed cubic Cu2O and monoclinic CuO phases, and the portion of the monoclinic CuO increased ...
