Copper based derivatives such as CuO, CuS and CuSe₂ nanostructures were synthesized employing hydrothermal growth for clean energy production. Three different unique morphologies of CuO, CuS and CuSe₂ was observed respectively as hexagonal nanoplates, sharp edge rock like nanostructures and nanoflowers consists of well defined nanorods. Half cell electrochemical compartment was designed with the fabricated electrodes to explore oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity. The highest electrochemical performance was interestingly achieved from cyclic voltametry (CV) profile for CuSe₂ electrode as 1144 F/g at 10 mV/s which is quite high specific capacitance for metal selenide candidate and also the higher OER activity of CuSe₂ electrode of 735 mA/g current density at 10 mV/s with low overpotential of 252 mV has been attained. The higher electron transportation mechanism and excellent stability was also achieved for copper selenide candidate that could be recommended as efficient OER active catalysts for future clean energy production applications.

铜基衍生物如CuO，CuS和CuSe ₂纳米结构是利用水热生长合成清洁能源而合成的。CuO，CuS和CuSe ₂分别观察到三种不同的独特形态，分别为六角形纳米板，锋利的岩石状纳米结构和纳米花，其中纳米花由定义明确的纳米棒组成。用制造的电极设计半电池电化学隔室，以研究氧释放反应（OER）活性。有趣的是，在10 mV / s下，CuSe ₂电极的循环伏安（CV）曲线为1144 F / g，获得了最高的电化学性能，这对于金属硒化物候选物来说是非常高的比电容，而且CuSe _2的OER活性更高。已获得10 mV / s的735 mA / g电流密度的电极和252 mV的低过电势。对于硒化铜候选物，也获得了更高的电子传输机理和出色的稳定性，可以被推荐作为未来清洁能源生产应用中的有效OER活性催化剂。
