摘要：
In this present work, flower-like Copper Oxide (CuO) has been successfully synthesized by facile hydrothermal method. The as-prepared sample has been characterized by using Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Raman spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-Visible absorption spectroscopy and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). PXRD and Raman spectroscopy analysis revealed the pure phase monoclinic structure of CuO. Flower-like morphology of the sample was confirmed by the FESEM analysis. The obtained band gap value from UV-Visible spectrum was found to be 1.4 eV. The results obtained for the photodegradation percentage of the model pollutants such as crystal violet and methylene blue shows 79.08% and 89.09% respectively after 180 min under UV light illumination.
