Facile dip-coating assisted preparation of reduced graphene oxide-copper oxide nanocomposite thin films on aluminum substrate for solar selective absorber

Reduced graphene oxide integrated copper oxide nanocomposite thin film (rGO-CuO NC TF) solar selective absorber coatings were devised on aluminum substrate using dip-coating procedure. The prepared coatings were subjected to characterization by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, ene...
