Reemplazo Galvánico Fácil Hacia Nanocintas Bimetálicas Unidimensionales a Base de Cu

We report a galvanic replacement-driven strategy for the in situ growth of highly uniform one-dimensional (1D) Cu@CuO-X (X = Ag, Bi) nanobelts directly on aluminum foils. Unlike conventional multi-step coating or hard-template replication strategies, the formation of these heterostructured nanobelts is governed by a spontaneous interfacial galvanic replacement process between Cu and the introduced metal species, ensuring in situ growth and intimate interfacial integration. Comprehensive SEM, TEM, XRD, and XPS characterizations confirm the successful formation of Cu@CuO-Ag and Cu@CuO-Bi architectures, where Bi predominantly exists in the oxidized Bi³⁺ state, forming Bi₂O₃-like surface species. Benefiting from their 1D anisotropic framework and controllable heterointerfaces, this work underscores the distinctiveness and versatility of the self-templated galvanic replacement strategy for the design of multifunctional nanomaterials.
