Extended Data Fig. 10

ad, Time-lapsed TEM images of one ice Ic crystallite (top row) and corresponding selected area FFTs (bottom row). The corresponding illumination electron beam dose of each image is 47 e2. Electron irradiation time for each image is 0.4 s. Facets were indexed as labelled on images. Area I is the single crystalline Ic matrix along <110> zone axis. Area II shows the high density of stacking faults on (\(1\bar{1}1\)) plane based on diffractometry information. Both single-crystalline Ic matrix and the defected area grew over time with no phase transition during the observation time.
