Nanocomposite films of CNPs/CuO structures by electrophoresis method

The article discusses the results of ordering a composite of carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) coated copper oxide (CuO) on the silicon substrate by the electrophoresis method and, particles size and chemical composition have analyzed by Raman spectroscopy, an Atomic Force Microscope, and Scanning Electron Microscope. Carbon nanoparticles from Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs) using the centrifugation method are applied by a pipette (by the drop method) on the silicon substrate with copper electrodes under the direct electric field to obtain CNPs-CuO nanocomposite films. It has been shown that carbon nanoparticles in solutions upon dispersion in an ultrasonic bath and subsequent centrifugation have a limiting particle size of 38 nm and CNPs solution can be controlled to obtain the nanocomposite films by the electrophoretic forces.
