扫描电子显微镜(STEM)被用来对几微米厚的盐水层顶部和下方的金纳米颗粒进行成像。所研究的最小的金纳米粒子的直径为1.4纳米,在液体厚度达3.3微米的情况下可见。由于电子束在液体中的散射导致电子探针的展宽,金纳米粒子的成像受到限制。实验数据符合分辨率和电子探针展宽随液体厚度变化的解析模型。研究结果还与蒙特卡罗模拟的STEM成像进行了比较,这些模拟样品的几何形状和成分与实验中使用的相似。液体中STEM成像的应用可以在细胞生物学中找到,例如,在液体中研究整个真核细胞中的标记蛋白质,以及在材料科学中在纳米尺度上研究固-液界面的相互作用。
Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) was used to image gold nanoparticles on top of and below saline water layers of several micrometers thickness. The smallest gold nanoparticles studied had diameters of 1.4 nm and were visible for a liquid thickness of up to 3.3 µm. The imaging of gold nanoparticles below several micrometers of liquid was limited by broadening of the electron probe caused by scattering of the electron beam in the liquid. The experimental data corresponded to analytical models of the resolution and of the electron probe broadening, as function of the liquid thickness. The results were also compared with Monte Carlo simulations of the STEM imaging on modeled specimens of similar geometry and composition as used for the experiments. Applications of STEM imaging in liquid can be found in cell biology, e.g., to study tagged proteins in whole eukaryotic cells in liquid, and in materials science to study the interaction of solid:liquid interfaces at the nanoscale.
