Based on their morphology, copper sulfide nanocrystals are classified into various forms such as nanoparticles, nanorods, nanowires, nanotubes, and nanoflowers, and can be synthesized using various methods including hydrothermal synthesis, wet chemical synthesis, template methods, and microwave methods. Researchers in this field have made significant progress in the preparation methods and applications of copper sulfide nanomaterials, for example:

[0003] Patent documents: Patent CN113428889B discloses a layered CuS nanoflower catalyst prepared by doping metal atoms using copper trifluoromethanesulfonate, copper tartrate, or copper gluconate as the copper source and thioaminourea, L-methionine, or 2-thioureapyrimidine as the sulfur source, as a negative electrode material for sodium-ion batteries, exhibiting good electrochemical performance. Patent application CN113264547A discloses a spherical CuS nanoflower catalyst prepared by heating and condensing copper acetylacetonate and n-dodecyl mercaptan under inert gas protection. 1.94 S nanoparticles can effectively absorb ultraviolet or visible light and can be applied in the field of optics. Patent application CN 112279293 A discloses a method for preparing copper sulfide nanorods by simultaneously dissolving sodium sulfide and copper chloride in dilute hydrochloric acid solution, followed by isothermal reflux treatment and a three-step cooling hydrothermal method.

[0004] In the paper, Cu2O seed layer was prepared by rapid oxidation method with hydrogen peroxide after cutting and cleaning of Cu electrode substrate, and then the Cu2O seed layer was rapidly sulfidized into Cu2S in Na2S solution, and then it was used as nucleation site to control the growth of large-size Cu2S nanosheet array by room temperature two-step method to prepare Cu2S-RV (rich in defects) nanosheet array, and then Cu2S-SV (surface defects) and Cu2S-WV (without defects) were prepared through different annealing treatment; and the three kinds of materials with different defect types were used as photoelectrolysis water photoanode, and the performance of the three kinds of materials applied to photoelectrolysis water hydrogen production was studied, and the results showed that the performance of Cu2S-SV was improved relative to Cu2S-WV in AM1.5G and full spectrum range, and the improvement in full spectrum range was more obvious (Research on Sulfide Copper Nanosheet Surface Plasmon Resonance Enhanced Photoelectric Hydrogen Production[D], Ren Kai-xu, 2016-Tianjin University: Materials Science). Zhao Zhe prepared copper sulfide@foam nickel (CuS@NF) catalyst (including copper sulfide nanosheet (CuS-NS) and copper sulfide nanowire (CuS-NW) two kinds of morphology) as CO2 electro-reduction catalyst by growing Cu2O on foam nickel substrate by hydrothermal method; through electrochemical characterization, it is proved that CuS-NS@NF has high CO2 electro-reduction catalytic performance, and has high selectivity for product CH4, and the FE of CH4 reaches 73%±5, and the reaction time can last for 60h; through electrochemical characterization, it is proved that S ion plays an important role in the reaction (Research on Electrochemical Reduction of CO2 Based on Copper Sulfide Nanosheet[D], Zhao Zhe, 2018-Tianjin University of Technology: Electrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide).
