Figure 5. 3D distribution of cisplatin clusters in nanotube bundles.

Figure 5

(A) Slice across an xy plane of Z-contrast scanning transmission electron microscopic tomogram showing three nanotube bundles (arrows) of 8–10 nm diameter. Clusters of Pt atoms that are approximately 1–2 nm in diameter are seen in one of the bundles. (B) 3D rendering of the scanning transmission electron microscopic tomogram showing the nanotube bundles and several large Pt clusters represented as bright dots. The 3D model reveals that the large Pt clusters are situated in the interior of the nanotube bundles. Scale bar is 10 nm.
