To be able to correlate the catalytic properties of nanoparticles with their structure, detailed knowledge about their make-up on the atomic level is required. Herein, we demonstrate how atom-probe tomography (APT) can be used to quantitatively determine the three-dimensional distribution of atoms within a Au@Ag nanoparticle with near-atomic resolution. We reveal that the elements are not evenly distributed across the surface and that this distribution is related to the surface morphology and residues from the particle synthesis.
