Copper Oxides and Related Materials: Properties, Synthesis, and Applications

Copper Oxides and Related Materials: Properties, Synthesis, and Applications provides a thorough description of the physical, structural, electrophysical, chemical, electronic, and biological properties of copper oxides in one convenient volume. The book focuses on human and environmental aspects, paying particular attention to health, environmental remediation, electronic applications, energy storage, and solar energy conversion. Copper oxides are widely used in many applications such as antibacterial, antimicrobial, and anticancer treatments; as biocide agents against phytopathogens or hospital-acquired diseases; and, they are also a standard material used for superconductivity. This volume thoroughly explores the most exciting and relevant applications of copper oxides, a class of material with a sometimes bewilderingly wide array of potential uses. Provides detailed descriptions of the physical, structural, electrophysical, chemical, electronic, and biological properties of copper oxidesAnalyzes a wide range of copper oxide-based applications focusing on human and environmental needsDescribes the latest approaches in the synthesis of copper oxides INDICE: 1.
