Abstract

We present two examples of the use of liquid cells to study colloidal inorganic nanocrystals using in situ transmission electron microscopy. The first uses a liquid cell to quantify the interaction potential between pairs of colloidal nanocrystals, and the second demonstrates direct imaging of nanocrystal growth and structure in the liquid cell.
