Nanometer Resolution Elemental Mapping in Graphene-Based TEM Liquid Cells
We demonstrate a new design of graphene liquid cell consisting of a thin lithographically patterned hexagonal boron nitride crystal encapsulated on both sides with graphene windows. The ultrathin window liquid cells produced have precisely controlled volumes and thicknesses and are robust to repeated vacuum cycling. This technology enables exciting new opportunities for liquid cell studies, pro...
متن کاملSub-Nanometer-Resolution Elemental Mapping of “Pt3Co” Nanoparticle Catalyst Degradation in Proton-Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells
The efficiency of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) is limited largely by sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics, even when promoted by Pt-based alloy nanoparticles (NPs). Acid-leached Pt alloys such as “Pt3Co” have shown considerably higher specific (2−5 times) and mass (2 to 3 times) ORR activity than Pt NPs. However, the specific activity enhancement of “Pt3Co” NPs decr...
متن کاملElectron microscopy of whole cells in liquid with nanometer resolution.
Single gold-tagged epidermal growth factor (EGF) molecules bound to cellular EGF receptors of fixed fibroblast cells were imaged in liquid with a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM). The cells were placed in buffer solution in a microfluidic device with electron transparent windows inside the vacuum of the electron microscope. A spatial resolution of 4 nm and a pixel dwell time of ...
متن کاملNanometer resolution TEM sample manipulator for rotational and translational positioning
The design and fabrication process for a high performance manipulation stage for nanometer resolution TEM sample positioning over a 20 m range is presented. A two level, planar stage is moved in three translational and three rotational directions by just two types of actuators; three horizontal and three vertical combdrives. The vertical combdrives are suspended by optimally designed torsion-be...
متن کاملVisualization of arrangements of carbon atoms in graphene layers by Raman mapping and atomic-resolution TEM
In-plane and out-of-plane arrangements of carbon atoms in graphene layers play critical roles in the fundamental physics and practical applications of these novel two-dimensional materials. Here, we report initial results on the edge/crystal orientations and stacking orders of bi- and tri-layer graphene (BLG and TLG) from Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) experiments...
