Monolayer graphene imaged on the double Cs-corrected Titan Themis 60-300 (FEI). The 80 keV incident electron beam was monochromated (“rainbow” mode illumination) to reduce the effects of chromatic aberration, and a negative Cs of ~20μm and slight over focus were used to give a “bright atom” contrast in the images.

UraniumUO2 nanoparticles self-assembled into nanowire associated with magnetite particle. Scale bar= 5 nm. UO2 nanoparticles are false colored in blue, magnetite is in yellow.

(A) Low magnification view of cryo-preserved purified T. spp. centriole and axoneme on carbon grid.
(B) 2D longitudinal view (sum of 10-20 slices) of the central cartwheel tomogram, with band-pass filter and Gaussian blur corresponding to the area with a dashed rectangle in (A). Sub-volumes extracted along the longitudinal axis are (80 nm)³ for the central cartwheel (pink squares represent one plane of the sub-volume) and (89 nm) ³ for the peripheral elements comprising microtubule triplet, pinhead and A-C linker (blue squares represent one plane of the sub-volume), with a step size of 25 nm in both cases.
