Structural characterization of Fe3O4-Au hybrid NPs. (a) Experimental X-Ray diffraction pattern (black). Black and red Miller indices correspond to Fe3O4 and Au phases, respectively. The red diffractogram is a Rietveld refinement based on Fe3O4 and Au powder diffraction reference data. The intensity is normalized to the strongest peak, i.e. the Fe3O4 (311). (b) TEM micrograph of Fe3O4-Au hybrid NPs. (c) High-resolution HAADF-STEM image. The right panels show higher magnifications and the crystallographic planes (lines). Their corresponding directions (arrows) are indicated for Fe3O4 (dark image) and Au (bright image). The particle is viewed along its [011] direction.
