• aberration-corrected STEM, in combination with high resolution spectral and chemical analysis, has allowed us to study the atomic structure of the Cu–Pt bimetallic nanoclusters, and the chemical compositions of the particles were measured by STEM-EDX analysis. HAADF-STEM imaging allowed us to study the
