A direct observation of nanometer-size void dynamics in an ultra-thin water film

Here we report the direct dynamic observation of electron beam induced nucleation of nanometer-diameter voids in a thin water film (<12 nm) on a hydrophilic substrate using an in situ TEM platform tailored towards imaging of liquids. The growth dynamics of these nano-voids in a thin water film re...
