In this work, we report the self-assembled growth of vertically aligned columnar Cu<sub>2</sub>O + Cu<sub>4</sub>O<sub>3</sub> nanocomposite thin films on glass and silicon substrates by reactive sputtering at room temperature. Microstructure analyses show that each phase in nanocomposite films has the columnar growth along the whole thickness, while each column exhibits the single phase characteristics. The local epitaxial growth behavior of Cu<sub>2</sub>O is thought to be responsible for such ...[more]
