Monodispersed Cu₂O micro cubes were prepared via a simple methanol-thermal reduction method by controlling the reaction temperature. The samples were characterized by using several techaniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectroscopy (XPS). The photocatalytic activities of the samples were tested by the photodegradation of rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light irradiation with λ>400 nm. The correlation between the physical-chemical properties and the photocatalytic acitivities of the materials were also investigated. The results indicate that monodispersed Cu₂O micro cubes can be prepared at 140℃ and show the best photocatalytic activity. When the preparation temperature was increased, ultrafine copper powder was obtained, and the photocatalytic performance of the sample was reduced rapidly.
