TLDR
An improved field ion microscope (FIM) technique has been developed for the neon gas imaging of gold specimens as discussed by the authors, which produces images which are stable at best image voltage at a tip temperature (TT) of 30 K or less.

The history and development of the helium ion microscope.

TL;DR: The helium ion microscope has recently emerged as a commercially available instrument and its roots go back more than 60 years to the development of the field ion microscope in Berlin, first reported in 1951.

CO Oxidation on Gold Surfaces Studied on the Atomic Scale

TL;DR: In this paper, the interaction of small gold crystal tips with oxygen gas and CO/O2 gas mixtures was studied by means of field ion microscopy (FIM) images of clean tips were obtained with hydrogen and neon as imaging gas.

DIRECT OBSERVATION OF LONG RANGE MIGRATION OF SELF-INTERSTITIAL ATOMS IN STAGE I OF IRRADIATED PLATINUM. Report No. 1529.

P. Petroff, +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the motion of single self-interstitial atoms (SIA's) in stage I of irradiated platinum was observed directly by field ion microscopy, showing that a flux of SIA's crossed the surface of the specimens between 13 and 25°K.

Field Ion Microscopy

TL;DR: In this article, the basic physical effects used in field ion microscopy are not yet fully understood, and a modified mechanism of field ionization and image interpretation has been proposed, using a high-voltage field ion microscope operated at up to 45 kV.

Field adsorption and desorption of helium and neon

TL;DR: In this article, the minimum required field strengths of gas films at different temperatures were determined using a field ion microscope tip, based on which they were shown to be able to detect gas adsorption and desorption.
