Recent work has made localized vibrational spectroscopy  in a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM). Here we employ this new ability to perform high resolution EELS to locally detect the vibrational modes of adsorbate molecules on nanoparticle surface and correlate this with atomic structure.
