Details of the porous undulating capillaries forming the walls of the large arterial pores. Sample characteristics: [Ni]  =  0.13 M; [P] = 1.26 M. Amount of deposition solution used was 600 mL. Heat treatment conditions: °C during heating at °C/min;  min. (a) Inner structure of an empty capillary wall (Scale bar 2 μm). (b) Details of the inner structure of the capillary walls of the arterial pores (scale bar = 500 nm).
