Solvent free deposition of Cu on nanocubes of MgO
Summary
A solvent-free way to place single copper atoms and small clusters on MgO nanocubes: the powder tumbles in a rotating holder under a magnetron sputtering beam. Diffraction, optical spectroscopy and Z-contrast electron microscopy show Cu, Cu2O and CuO on faces and edges of the cubes, and magnetic measurements reveal a behaviour not reported before for this system.
