The processes by which field evaporation in an atom probe is momentarily stimulated by
impingement of a laser beam on a specimen are considered. For metals, the dominant and …

After reviewing the physics and chemistry in high electrostatic fields and summarizing the
theoretical results for Atom Probe Tomography of metallic tips, we turn to the new challenges …

Three-dimensional dielectric nanostructures have been analyzed using field ion microscopy
(FIM) to study the electric dc field penetration inside these structures. The field is proved to …

The field evaporation behavior of c-axis GaN nanowires was explored in two different laser-
pulsed atom probe tomography (APT) instruments. Transmission electron microscopy …

Quantitative composition measurements of metal-oxides by atom probe tomography (APT)
face the problem of the nature of the oxygen peak at 16Da. Due to a possible overlap …

Atom probe tomography (APT) has been increasingly used to investigate hydrogen
embrittlement in metals due to its unique capacity for direct imaging of H atoms interacting …

The direct laser writing (DLW) of photoluminescent metal clusters is inspiring intensive
research in functional glasses. However, understanding the influence of the host structure …

The controlled field evaporation of single atoms from an oxide surface assisted by ultra fast
laser pulses has recently been demonstrated. When UV light is used, a photoionization …

Three-dimensional reconstruction of the analysed volume is one of the main goals of atom
probe tomography (APT) and can deliver nearly atomic resolution (~ 0.2 nm spatial …

The application of atom probe tomography to the study of minerals is a rapidly growing area.
Picosecond-pulsed, ultraviolet laser (UV-355 nm) assisted atom probe tomography has …
