In this project, CuO nanosheets were grown successfully in polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) by a simple and quick chemical method in the absence of templates. Copper nitrate, PVP and sodium hydroxide were used as copper precursor, stabilizer and accelerator, respectively. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV–vis spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive analysis of X-rays (EDAX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The result of the XRD and EDAX confirmed the formation of pure single-phase CuO. Generation of the CuO nanosheets and nanorods were confirmed by UV–visible spectra. FE-SEM depicted that layered …
