“…The diffraction peaks located at 2q ¼ 29.4, 36.5, 42.2, 61.5, 73.7, and 77.4 can be indexed to the {110}, {111}, {200}, {220}, {311}, and {222} lattices, respectively, of the pure cubic-phase Cu 2 O nanocrystals (JCPDS: 05-0667, space group: Pn 3m, a ¼ 0.4270 nm). 37,38 The other diffraction peaks located at 2q ¼ 38.0, 44.1, 64.4, and 77.4 can be indexed to the {111}, {200}, {220}, and {311} planes, respectively, of the face-centered cubic structure of the Ag nanocrystals (JCPDS: 04-0783, space group: Fm3m, a ¼ 0.4086 nm). 39 These results indicate that the structure is composed of Cu 2 O and Ag.…”
