3D structural reconstructions of assemblies were carried out using electron tomography. Accordingly, a series of 2D projections were collected by tilting the sample from +69° to −69° with an increment angle of 2–3°. The tilt series were then subjected to image processing to obtain the final 3D reconstruction.
The tilt series and 3D reconstructions for the assemblies corresponding to the reacted 4 nm Ag NPs are shown in the video.
