Confined conversion of CuS nanowires to CuO nanotubes by annealing-induced diffusion in nanochannels

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Copper oxide (CuO) nanotubes were successfully converted from CuS nanowires embedded in anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template by annealing-induced diffusion in a confined tube-type space. The spreading of CuO and formation of CuO layer on the nanochannel surface o...
