Abstract

CuO nanorods were prepared by microwave-assisted method in the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazole tetrafluoroborate which is synthesized by method of substitution halogenated hydrocarbons for organic macromolecular (methylimidazole) in this experiment. The samples were characterized by means of IR spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scan electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The above mentioned results showed that the length of the CuO nanorods was 1000 nm, the diameter was 50 nm, and morphology was the hemisphere in both sides. Meanwhile the growth mechanism of CuO nanostructures was also studied.
