  • Abstract
    The stabilization layer of CrO2 particles has been investigated using high-resolution electron microscopy with a 400-keV instrument. The layer consists of β-CrOOH, which is formed topotactically from CrO2. Due to slight lattice mismatch, β-CrOOH is distorted; it appears as a hexagonal pattern in TEM pictures
