We describe synchrotron x-ray diffraction measurements of strain in Cu and Pd metal nanoparticles (1.7–40 nm diameter) both with an air-formed oxide shell and after reduction of the oxide by treatment in a hydrogen-containing atmosphere. Oxide removal is evident from x-ray diffraction (for Cu) and x-ray absorption spectroscopy (for Pd). A simple model that uses bulk elastic properties is applied to each system. In the Pd case the model predictions agree well with the experiment. For Cu the observed strains are much smaller than predicted. This discrepancy is attributed to (a) the presence of multiple grains within the Cu particles and (b) the incoherency of the oxide with the metal core.
