Cu₂O micro-and nanoparticles with different morphologies(cube, microsphere, hollow sphere and core-shell) were prepared by polyol method, using copper nitrate, copper acetate, and copper acetylacetonate as raw materials. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), high resolution TEM(HRTEM) and ultraviolet-visible(UV-Vis) spectroscopy. We investigated the influences of copper sources, reaction time, the polyol types and other conditions on the morphology of cuprous oxide. The mechanism for the formation of Cu₂O in polyol process is discussed. Synthesis of cuprous oxide micro-and nanostructures with different shape can be controlled by the simple and inexpensive polyol method. This method is promising for the preparation of oxides with controlled morphologies.
