Abstract
Environmental transmission electron microscopy (ETEM) studies MgO nanorod growth from Au catalyst nanoparticles in a controlled gas atmosphere have been performed, in order to elucidate the mobility of Au surface atoms and the configuration of the Au/MgO interface. MgO nanorod growth is driven by the electron beam and found to be strongly dependent on the gaseous environment in the microscope and electron beam current density.

We present environmental transmission electron microscopy (ETEM) studies of the growth of MgO nanorods from Au catalyst nanoparticles in a controlled gas atmosphere, in order to elucidate the mobility of Au surface atoms and the configuration of the Au/MgO interface
Earlier studies report that MgO nanorod growth is driven by the electron beam
