Abstract

We have demonstrated a facile strategy to artificially design and synthesize novel polyhedron-aggregated multi-facet Cu₂O homogeneous structures via a seed-mediated solution method. The polyhedron-aggregated Cu₂O homogeneous structures with high-index {522} facets exhibit higher photocatalytic activity for enhancing degradation of methyl orange.
