Direct imaging and chemical identification of the encapsulated metal atoms in bimetallic endofullerene peapods.

In this paper, a chemically sensitive local characterization technique is used to characterize fullerene peapods containing two metal atoms within each fullerene. By combining bright-field imaging, high-angle annular dark-field imaging, and electron energy loss spectroscopy in a scanning transmissio...
