a Schematic of encapsulating ice crystal sections from deionized (DI) water between amorphous carbon (a-C) films. b TEM image of a thin strip of ice crystal encapsulated between a-C films. c SAED pattern showing overall single crystallinity along the [0001] zone axis. d–f Schematic of the viewing direction (top row), average background subtraction (ABS)-filtered HRTEM (middle row), and Fourier transform (bottom row) of ice Ih along three zone axes. Both Miller-Bravais and Miller indices were given for convenience. EELS profiles in the low-loss (g) and oxygen K core-loss (h) regions. The low-loss profiles were deconvolved using the Fourier-log algorithm to remove the zero-loss peak and plural scattering. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
