Cryogenic transmission electron micrographs of iron oxide nanoparticles in vitrified water. The image on the left is a cryo-TEM of the freshly prepared nanoparticles after dialysis. The images on the right-hand side show mesocrystals composed of ca. 5 nm goethite nanoparticles in crystallographic alignment with respect to one another. This work is presented in Yuwono et al., 2010 and presented, for the first time, images of the intermediate proposed in the oriented aggregation crystal growth mechanism.
