Abstract
Development of a theoretical model to describe the joint growth of Cu2O and CuO oxide layers accompanied with synthesis of copper oxide nanowires, which is being conducted from a limited copper layer of a certain thickness, is described. The necessity of the modelling is urged by the experimental evidences, and one is considered as a reference point to verify the model. According to the calculations, change in thickness of the copper layer deposited on a glass substrate e.g., increase the flexibility of the process by adding a control loop in addition to widely applied control of the substrate temperature during a thermal oxidation. Combination of these two factors (thickness of copper layer and temperature of synthesis) allows controlling the nanowire length and aspect ratio; moreover, the parameters can be controlled independently. It was found that if the temperature is enough to consume the copper layer after some time of heating, abrupt changes in the growth of oxide layers occur. If the temperatures is about 300–400 ℃, and Cu2O layer is not consumed, and nanowires reached the maximal length, only the diameter of nanowires increases; it the temperature increases, the length is also affected.
