Potential surface instability of quantum dots arising from thermal fluctuations, observed by drift-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). (A) Single frame and (B) a frame-averaged STEM image from a movie of a 5-nm CdSe nanocrystal, illustrating blurring of the surface due to atomic fluctuations.
