In this study, the high-energy electron beam of the transmission electron microscope (TEM) is utilized as an external force to in situ modify the polyphenylene dendrimer (G2Td(COOH)16) templated CuO rice-shaped architecture (RSA). By virtue of the nanoscale precision of this approach, the electron b...
