Cu2S nanostructures were fabricated by polyol method and then characterized by X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high resolution TEM. The morphologically different Cu2S nanostructures such as vertically nanorod arrays, nanoflowers assembled by nanorod arrays, nanoparticles and nanowires, can be successfully synthesized under different experimental conditions. The growth mechanism for the different nanostructures is proposed. The photocatalytic activity of the prepared samples was evaluated based on the degradation of organic pollutan...
