Abstract
Well-defined crystalline Cu2O was electrodeposited on TFO from basic Cu(II) -lactate solutions. Experimental conditions, especially the temperature and pH of the deposition solution, had a strong influence on the deposition ki netics and the morphology of the formed layers. The photo-electrochemical p roperties of the Cu2O were investigated. A composite material was made by e lectrodepositing the p-type Cu2O inside a nanoporous n-type TiO2 electrode.
