XPS characterization was performed
using monochromated Al Kα X-rays from an Omicron XM1000 MkII
X-ray source and Omicron EA125 hemispherical analyzer with ±0.05
eV resolution. A take-off angle of 45°, acceptance angle of 8°,
and pass energy of 15 eV were employed during spectral acquisition.
The BE scale was referenced to the adventitious carbon species in
the C 1s core level (285.8 eV). Spectra were deconvolved using AAnalyzer,49 a curve fitting software.
For structural
analysis, cross-section samples were obtained by using the Dual Beam
Helios NanoLab 600i system from FEI, using a Ga ion beam. Layers of
the protective material were used consisting of electron beam deposited
C, Pt, and ion beam deposited C. Lamellas were thinned and polished
at 30 kV 100 pA and 5 kV 47 pA, respectively. XTEM imaging was carried
out using a JEOL 2100 HRTEM, operated at 200 kV in the bright field
mode using a Gatan double tilt holder. EDX mapping was carried out
using a Thermo Fisher Scientific Titan Themis operated of 300 kV in
the STEM mode using the Bruker SuperX silicon drift detector.

FIB/SEM imaging and TEM specimen preparation by FIB lift out were conducted on a FEI Helios DualBeam FIB operating at 1–30 kV. STEM observation was conducted on FEI Titan 80-300 TEM with probe corrector. In STEM mode the beam current is 60 pA. For high-resolution lattice imaging, the beam dose is around 106 e Å–2. HRTEM observations were conducted on FEI Titan 80-300 Environmental TEM with objective lens corrector. The beam current is 140 pA. The in situ TEM heating holder is carried using a double tilt holder based on resistant heating coil made by Gatan (Gatan Inc., Pleasanton, CA, USA). The sample was heated at a constant rate of 5 °C min–1 from room temperature and the temperature is measured using a thermal couple integrated into the holder. In situ XRD experiments were carried out using a Bruker D8 advace X-ray diffractometer with a heating stage.

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis was performed using a FEI Quanta 650 FEG High Resolution scanning electron microscope. Typical beam energies were in the range of 10–20 kV. SEM analysis allowed for membrane thickness measurements and topological investigation. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was employed to image and measure Ag and Au NPs in the Chi-TEOS IPN membrane; these measurements were carried out on a JEOL 2100 High Resolution TEM, operated at 200 kV in bright field mode using a Gatan double tilt holder.

TEM Imaging of Nanomaterials

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Selected samples were imaged with a transmission electron microscope (FEI Tecnai™ G2 F20 X-Twin TEM) equipped with a field-emission gun electron source. TEM samples were prepared by suspending a few milligrams of the sample in 1-2 mL of acetone, ultrasonicating for 20 min, then drop-casting them onto holey carbon Cu TEM grids. The grids were then mounted on a Gatan double-tilt holder at room temperature or a Gatan double-tilt liquid nitrogen cryo-TEM holder at 77 K. Energy filtered images were acquired at an acceleration voltage of 200 kV on a Gatan GIF Tridiem detector.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
