CuO is dissolved into aqueous ammonia and the solution is diluted by alcohol and dip coating onto a glass substrate. Drying at 80 C the nanostructures with bunchy nanoparticles of Cu OH 2 can be formed. After the substrate immerges into the solution and we vaporize the solution hollow microspheres can be formed onto the substrate. There are three phases in the as-prepared samples monoclinic tenorite CuO orthorhombic Cu OH 2 and monoclinic carbonatodi-amminecopper II Cu NH3 2CO3 . After annealing at 150 C the products convert to CuO completely. At annealing temperature above 350 C the hollow microspheres became nanoparticle interlinked cages. Keywords CuO Microsphere Narnoparticle Introduction Cupric oxide CuO has a monoclinic crystal structure. It has many interesting properties and received much research attention 1-18 . CuO is a p-type semiconductor in general with a narrow band gap eV 18 J. Q. Qi H L. T.

Recent studies indicate that CuO can exist in three different magnetic phases a three-dimensional collinear antiferromagnetic phase at temperatures under 213 K an intermediate noncollinear incommensurate magnetic phase between 213 and 230 K and a onedimensional quantum .
