    <t>Cryo-ADF-STEM</t> micrograph of polymeric nanoparticles showing bright central regions in the core of some nanoparticles (green arrows) that might suggest a high density region within an inner core of the nanoparticles. (a)–(b) comparison between under-focus BF-TEM and ADF-STEM of the same region. Yellow curves indicate layer 1 and orange curves indicate layer 2. (c) A dark halo is visible around the particles in the ADF-STEM image (blue arrow and curves) suggesting the presence of layer 3 and it being lower density than the core and the surrounding vitreous ice. d) Application of a high pass filter to the ADF-STEM image removes thickness variation and emphasizes the low electron density of layer 3 and e) inverting the contrast of the high pass filtered ADF-STEM image reveals all three layers of the core-shell-corona nanoparticles.

(a)–(b) comparison between under-focus BF-TEM and ADF-STEM of the same region. Yellow curves indicate layer 1 and orange curves indicate layer 2.

    Techniques Used:

    (a) Under-focus BF-TEM image and PCA treated carbon STEM-EELS mapping of the area marked in red. (b) Under-focus BF-TEM, ADF-STEM and C- K EELS mapping of a cropped fragment marked in yellow in (a) and showing carbon presence between the particles, confirming the C-content to layer 3. The corresponding diameter of layer 1 + 2 is identical between cropped under-focus BF-TEM, ADF-STEM and C- K map images (yellow arrows) and the thickness of layer 3 is consistent with earlier measurements of the spacing between nanoparticles by under-focus BF-TEM (blue arrow). Red arrows indicate severe electron beam damage in layer 2 visible in a post-EELS acquisition, ADF-STEM image.

    Techniques Used:

    (a) Cryo-ADF-STEM image of particles and areas where spectra were extracted from – layer 1 (yellow box), layer 2 (orange boxes), layer 3 (blue boxes) and amorphous ice (purple box). (b) Background stripped, as-acquired (faint dots) and smoothed (bold lines) STEM-EELS from layer 1, layer 2 layer 3 and amorphous ice areas in (a). Layer 1 is C rich and also has a clear N peak identifiable. Layer 2 and 3 have progressively less C and relatively more O per layer and less than that of the amorphous ice. (c) Background stripped, as-acquired (faint lines) and smoothed (bold lines) STEM-EELS at the C- K edge reveal that layer 2 and layer 3 have slightly different edge structure to that of layer 1 suggesting a different polymer composition.

    Techniques Used:

    (a) Cryo-ADF STEM and cryo-STEM EELS carbon and nitrogen mapping. (b) Cryo-STEM-EEL spectrum acquired over the whole area shows the presence of C, N and O. (c) A linear intensity profile taken from the C–N overlay map and ADF-STEM image indicates that C occurs also between the nanoparticles and N is located approximately in the centre of individual nanoparticles (yellow box in (a)).

    Techniques Used:

    (a) Under-focus BF-TEM of non-standard nanoparticles named as: debris (non-spherical particles, marked as orange arrows) and blank (no visible layer 1, marked as red arrows). Both non-standard particles are highly beam sensitive. (b) Cropped cryo-STEM-EELS mapping of area marked in yellow in (a) suggests that debris and blank particles consist of the same material as layer 2 in the standard particle (i.e., have negligible N content and are highly beam sensitive).

    Techniques Used:

    (a) Final multi-modal data-driven model of the polymeric nanoparticles based on (i) ADF-STEM (*high-pass filtered), (ii) phase contrast-TEM and (iii) STEM-EELS analysis. (b) The likely content of each layer is -pamoic acid-API and some PLA material in layer 1 with a core enriched in pamoic acid-API material. Only PEG and PLA in layer 2 and diffuse PEG packing in layer 3.
