Abstract

Porous Cu/C composites and CuO nanostructures can be easily synthesized from coordination precursors between Cu2+ and glycine, which are obtained simply by adding ethanol as a poor solvent into a Cu2+ and glycine solution, and verified to be potential antibacterial agents and photocatalysts.
