title: A novel preparation of nano-Cu/ZnO by photo-reduction of Cu(OCH(Me)CH2NMe2)2 on ZnO at room temperature.
abstract: Room-temperature preparation of nano-Cu on ZnO by UV light induced photo-reduction of Cu(OCH(Me)CH2NMe2)2 precursor was achieved, indicating a novel method of nano-Cu/ZnO synthesis from an organometallic copper precursor in non-aqueous media without further chemical reduction.
