Just before coming to Boston, I had been trying to grow Cu oxide films by a sol-gel method and must say didn't have much success. I was planning to try out few more ideas after getting back. Guess what, walking through the poster session, I discovered a poster describing exactly what I needed. Better yet, my original method was not wrong, it just missed a simple step. I had to store my sol for a day before using it. That's it....can't wait to get back and try this. Thanks MRS :-)
P.S. If anybody needs more details, feel free to post a comment here and I can send you the recipe.
