We use plasma method syntheisized Carbon coated copper nanoparticles The structure , size distribution and phase composition of the particles were analysised by TEM , XRD and DSC. Meanwhile, The conductivity of carbon-coated copper nanoparticles were measured. Results show that Carbon coated copper nanoparticles were core-shell structure for the copper core inside, the multi carbon layer outside, around the copper core is graphite-like carbon and far away from the copper core is amorphous carbon. While carbon-coated copper nanoparticles at room temperature and high temperatures have shown good oxidation resistance; The conductivity of carbon-coated copper nanoparticles with metal content increases and when the copper content is 80% the conductivity jump.

<div>As a promising oxygen evolution reaction semiconductor, TiO2 has been extensively investigated for solar photoelectrochemical water splitting. Here, a highly efficient and stable strategy for rationally preparing GaON cocatalysts on TiO2 by atomic layer deposition is demonstrated, which we show significantly enhances the</div><div>photoelectrochemical performance compared to TiO2-based photoanodes. For TiO2@20 nm-GaON core-shell nanowires a photocurrent density up to 1.10 mA cm-2 (1.23 V vs RHE) under AM 1.5 G irradiation (100 mW cm-2) has been achieved, which is 14 times higher than that of TiO2 NWs. Furthermore, the oxygen vacancy formation on GaON as well as the band gap matching with TiO2 not only provides more active sites for water oxidation but also enhances light absorption to promote interfacial charge separation and migration. Density functional theory studies of model systems of GaON-modified TiO2 confirm the band gap reduction, high reducibility and ability to activate water. The highly efficient and stable systems of TiO2@GaON core-shell nanowires provide a deeper understanding and universal strategy for enhancing photoelectrochemical performance of photoanodes now available. </div>
