Probing the local thermal expansion coefficient of single liquid Sn nanoparticles using EELS in STEM

Abstract We investigated the local coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) along the diameter of a 190 nm Sn nanoparticle supported on a thin Si₃N₄ substrate. The surface and volume plasmon energies of the liquid Sn nanoparticle were measured as a function of temperature using spatially resolved vale...
