We report the synthesis of different Cu(OH)2 and CuO nanostructures (nanowires, rectangles, seedlike, beltlike, and sheetlike) in a solution phase with high yield at low cost by simple reduction of aqueous solution of copper nitrate (Cu(NO3)2 = 0.2 M) with different alkaline solutions of sodium hydr...
