Use of metal oxide thin layers is increased due to their good durability under environmental conditions. In this work, the repeatable nanostructured crystalite Cu2O thin films, developed by electrodeposition method without any physical and chemical modifications, demonstrate good hydrophobicity. Copper (I) oxide (Cu2O) layers were fabricated on gold/Si(1 0 0) substrates by different electrodeposition methods i.e. galvanostatic deposition, cyclic voltammetry, and pulse potentiostatic deposition and using copper sulfate (in various concentrations) as a precursor. The greatest crystalline face on prepared Cu2O samples is (1 1 1) which is the most hydrophobic facet of Cu2O cubic structure. Indeed, different crystallite structures such as nanotriangles and truncated octahedrons were formed on the surface for various electrodeposition methods. The increase of the contact angle (θw) measured by the rest time, reaching to about 135°, was seen at different rates and electrodeposition methods. In addition, two-step deposition surfaces were also prepared by applying two of the mentioned methods, alternatively. In general, the morphology of the two-step deposition surfaces showed some changes compared to that of one-step samples, allowing the formation of different crystallite shapes. Moreover, the wettability behavior showd the larger θw of the two-step deposition layers compared to the related one-step deposition layers. Therefore, the highest observed θw was related to the one of two-step deposition layers due to the creation of small octahedral structures on the surface, having narrow and deep valleys. However, there was an exception which was due to the resulted big structures and broad valleys on the surface. So, it is possible to engineer different crystallites shapes using the proposed two-step deposition method. It is expected that hydrophobic crystallite thin films can be used in environmental and electronic applications to save energy and materials properties.
