Si-doped BNNTs [116]. (a) SEM image of Si-doped BNNTs with worm-like (inset in (a)) or bamboo-like (b) structures. Lattice-resolved TEM image for the edges of the wall layers with its corresponding FFT ED pattern (inset in (c)) showed the (002) basal planes aligned along the tube axis with high crystallinity. EELS mapping of B, N, Si, and O atoms (d) demonstrated the homogeneous distribution of Si and the thin oxide outlayers. Reprinted with permission of [116]. Copyright 2009 American Chemical Society.
