Laihunite that has distorted olivine-type structure with ferric and ferrous irons and ordered distribution of vacancies was first discovered in a high-grade metamorphosed banded iron formation (BIF) [1, 2]. The laihunite coexisting with fayalite (Fe-olivine), magnetite, quartz, ferrosilite, garnet and hedenbergite, formed in the process of oxidation of fayalite [2, 3]. The structure refinement of 1-layer laihunite shows P21/b symmetry and ordered distribution of vacancies in half M1 sites of olivine structure [2, 3]. Early high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) study and HRTEM image simulation of the 1-layer laihunite verified the structure refinement [4].Specimens of weakly oxidized fayalite and laihunite containing fayalite islands collected from Xiaolaihe and Menjiagou of Liaoning Province, NE China, have been studied using selected area electron diffraction (SAED), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), and X-ray energy-dispersive spectroscopy.

ABSTRACTIn this study, we have demonstrated successful site-specific cross-sectioning of carbon-nanotube - metal junctions which provided samples suitable for high resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy. For the cross-sectioning, we have suggested a modified technique based on combination of the Focused Ion Beam (FIB) lift-out and the conventional Ar+ ion milling techniques. Electron-transparent cross-sections of multiwall carbon nanotubes showing no significant surface amorphization or Ga contamination (typical artifacts of conventional FIB lift-out technique) were obtained. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy of a multi-wall carbon nanotube cross-section have been carried out.

Interfacial atomic and electronic structures of Cu/Al2O3(0001) and Cu/Al2O3(11 _ ,20) prepared by a pulsed-laser deposition technique were characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS). It was found that both systems have O-terminated interfaces, irrespective of different substrate orientations. This indicates that Cu-O interactions across the interface play an important role for the Cu/Al2O3 systems.
