  • LASER ATOM PROBES
    Publication number: 20100294928
    Abstract: An atom probe includes a specimen mount that can hold a specimen to be analyzed. A detector is spaced apart from the specimen mount. Between the detector and specimen mount Is a local electrode with an aperture. A laser is oriented to emit a laser beam toward the specimen mount at a nonzero angle with respect to the aperture plane, the aperture plane being oriented perpendicular to an ion travel path defined through the aperture between the specimen mount and detector.
