Reports of bismuth-based nanoparticle XCAs have included Bi2S3 nanoparticles stabilized by polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) or phospholipids, and bismuth ions loaded into polymer nanoclusters for blood pool imaging, as well as ∼20 nm PVP-coated elemental BiNPs, which were used in X-ray fluorescence detection of circulating tumor cells.
Coating characterization studies were conducted considering coating morphology, surface roughness, coating elemental analysis and phase analysis of coated and coated textured tools.
Figure 1 SEM micrographs of the a, b BCNTs and c, d Si-coated BCNTs Figure 2 TEM images of the Si-coated BCNTs Figure 3 Elemental mapping of the Si-coated BCNTs: a carbon, b oxygen, c silicon. Figure 4 shows the Raman spectra of Si-coated BCNTs and silicon film on copper substrates.
Consequently, the coated samples exhibit different elemental compositions (with respect to their position in relation to the target half plates, i.e. from Cr-rich to Zr-rich) and constitutions.
Cross-sectional SEM images of the (a) Au-coated and (b) Cu-coated nb-Si electrodes showing where the elemental maps were obtained and corresponding element mapping images of Au, Cu, O, and Si for metal (Au, Cu -coated nb-Si eleCu -coated
Measurements of the B4C layer thickness of an RVC coated foam, and determination of its elemental composition, are performed using scanning electron microscopy.
In addition, a modified passive sampler designed to collect elemental mercury (Hg0) with gold-coated filters was used.
The elemental analysis results of La-coated specimens indicate that chromium in the alloy is oxidized internally under the La-diffusion region.

Based on our HPTLC-based determinations of phospholipid content of PC- and PS-coated SWCNT, the expected content of elemental carbon in the suspensions of these coated SWCNT should be 81 and 61 ng/µl, respectively.
