Fig. 3: TEM characterization of recovered carbon agglomerates.
From: Ultrafast shock synthesis of nanocarbon from a liquid precursor
a, b Images of carbon nanoparticle agglomerates containing globular domains recovered from the inside of the sample cavity after LCO evaporation. Semicircles are placed as an aid to identify domains, while (in the top half of the semicircle) not obscuring edges. Measured domain sizes range from 5 to 30 nanometers. Supplementary Fig. 5 shows a comparison of the above images with and without markings. c Carbon K edge EELS spectra from the carbon agglomerate and reference carbon materials (here, amorphous corresponds to the lacey carbon of TEM grids); agglomerate spectrum matches well that of amorphous carbon. Scale bars are 50 nm. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
