Abstract:

Atom Probe Tomography (APT) is a powerful technique that reveal the structure of materials with near-atomic resolution. By removing and identifying atoms one at a time from a material, a 3D image revealing microstructure features can be obtained. Historically, this technique has only been available for metals and similar materials, but recent development has made it accessible to a wider range of functional materials. In this presentation, we will discuss the foundations of APT and how nanomaterials, biological materials and nanoscale features of functional materials can be studied using this technique.
