Quantitative off-axis electron holography in a transmission electron microscope (TEM) requires careful design of experiment specific to instrumental characteristics. For example, the spatial resolution desired for a particular holography experiment imposes requirements on the spacing of the interference fringes to be recorded. This fringe spacing depends upon the geometric configuration of the TEM/electron biprism system, which is experimentally fixed, but also upon the voltage applied to the biprism wire of the holography unit, which is experimentally adjustable. Hence, knowledge of the holographic interference fringe spacing as a function of applied voltage to the electron biprism is essential to the design of a specific holography experiment. Furthermore, additional instrumental parameters, such as the coherence and virtual size of the electron source, for example, affect the quality of recorded holograms through their effect on the contrast of the holographic fringes.

The purpose of the article is to discuss the process of oxidation of carbon nanotubes subsequently subjected to the process of decoration with rhenium nanoparticles. The influence of functionalization in an oxidizing medium is presented and the results of investigations using Raman spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy are discussed. Multiwalled carbon nanotubes rhenium-type nanocomposites with the weight percentage of 10%, 20% and 30% of rhenium are also presented in the article. The structural components of such nanocomposites are carbon nanotubes decorated with rhenium nanoparticles. Microscopic examinations under transmission electron microscope and scanning transmission electron microscope using the bright and dark field confirm that nanocomposites containing about 20% of rhenium have the most homogenous structure.

This article describes the synthesis and the characterization of a polyamide-12 filled with a nanostructured organic/inorganic titanoniobate hybrid material. The pristine oxide KTiNbO5 has been successfully organomodified by N-alkyl amines via an acido-basic reaction after a cationic exchange step as shown by x-ray diffraction. Transmission electron microscope study and scanning transmission electron microscope observations have been used to describe the change of morphology of the nanofillers before and after processing; the micronic aggregates were changed into single sheets and dispersed in the polymer. Thermomechanical properties of the composites have been determined, and their analyses with structure-properties models are consistent with the exfoliation of the organomodified titanoniobates.
