Multislice simulations in the transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used to examine changes in annular-dark-field scanning TEM (ADF-STEM) images, conventional bright-field TEM (BF-CTEM) images, and selected-area electron diffraction (SAED) patterns as atomically thin hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) samples are tilted up to 500 mrad off of the [0001] zone axis. For monolayer h-BN the contra...

The effect of an electron beam induced dehydrogenation of MgH2 in the transmission electron microscope (TEM) is largely underestimated by Nogita et al., and led the authors to a misinterpretation of their TEM observations. Firstly, the selected area diffraction (SAD) pattern is falsely interpreted. A re-evaluation of the SAD pattern reveals that no MgH2 is present in the sample, but that it rat...

the synthesis of nanoparticles from biological processes is evolving a new era of research interests in nanotechnology. the aim of this study was to determined antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles produced by rosmarinus officinalis l leaf extract against some human pathogenic bacteria. the formation and characterisation of agnps were confirmed by uv-vis spectroscopy, energy-dispersive...

Silver nanoparticle rings embedded in glass are fabricated by ion exchange technique with photolithographically patterned metal mask. Optical transmission measurement is performed to characterize the optical properties of silver nanoparticles. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) of an etched sample further shows the pattern of the nanoparticles. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) with X-ray energ...

The Myco silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are synthesized through bio-reduction reaction of silver nitrate by cell-free filtrate of endophytic fungi, which act as both reducing and capping agent. The synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was confirmed through UV-VIS spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Energ...

Nano-sized γ-Al2O3 was synthesized successfully by a simple method using Al2(SO4)3·18H2O as aluminium source and in the presence of polyethylene glycol (PEG 2000). FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used to characterize the structure and morphology of synthesized powder. The results showed that PEG playe...

We have designed and fabricated a standardized specimen holder that allows the operation of a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) device inside a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The details of the design and fabrication processes of the holder are presented. The sample loading mechanism is simple and allows reliable electrical contact to eight signal lines on the device. Using a MEMS-b...

The present study mainly focuses of combined action of Nepali hog plum as well as citrate synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and Amikacin, as an antibiotic. The synergistic actions of citrate stabilized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs with chem) were compared with that of Nepali hog plum Choerospondia saxillaris (Lapsi) synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs with plant), together with action...
