Description:

Graphene-graphene oxide (GO) hybrid liquid cells (LCs) for liquid-phase scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) were fabricated using a facile method with commercial graphene on a polymethyl methacrylate sheet and GO on a TEM grid. LCs containing Pt nanoparticles (NPs) and pure water were efficiently produced and observed via STEM. Their composition and thickness were characterized by STEM-electron energy-loss spectroscopy. High-resolution (HR) STEM revealed slow-moving Pt NPs’ atomic structures and fast-moving single Pt atoms at the LC’s thin edges. Minimal damage during HR STEM indicated stable LCs because of their excellent electrical and thermal conductivities and radiolysis species scavenging ability.
