In order to obtain high-purity and low-pollution nano-particles, a gaseous environment preparation method (such as laser ablation and vapor deposition) is favored because of controllable reaction and wide applicability, however, the nano-particles usually exist in an aerosol form in a gaseous environment and must be efficiently collected and deposited on a Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) carrier network so as to utilize high-resolution imaging of the TEM for particle size, morphology and defect analysis.
