Abstract
Nanoindentation tests were performed directly on solid and hollow cuprous oxide (Cu2O) nanocubes. The hardness and elastic modulus of solid Cu2O nanocubes were measured and compared with the values of bulk Cu2O. It is found that the hollow cube top wall acts as a membrane that bends under an indentation load. The Cu2O nanocubes are more ductile rather than brittle. Deformation behavior and fracture mechanics are discussed in conjunction with the structure of the Cu2O nanocube.
