Three-Dimensional Atom-Probe Tomography: Advances and Applications

David N. Seidman
- 17 Jul 2007 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the historical temporal evolution of an APT from its genesis (1973) from field-ion microscope images of individual tungsten atoms (1955) to modern APTs employing either electrical or laser pulsing.

Physical limits in digital electronics

R.W. Keyes
TL;DR: In this paper, the implications of the laws of quantum mechanics and thermodynamics for information storage are examined and the need for power dissipation in electrical information processing is demonstrated and the limits set on miniaturization by the problems of removing the heat thereby produced.

Atom Probe Tomography 2012

Thomas F. Kelly, +1 more
- 13 Jul 2012 - 
TL;DR: In the world of tomographic imaging, atom probe tomography (APT) occupies the high-spatial-resolution end of the spectrum and is applicable to a wide range of materials as discussed by the authors.

First Data from a Commercial Local Electrode Atom Probe (LEAP)

Thomas F. Kelly, +12 more
- 01 Jun 2004 - 
TL;DR: The first dedicated local electrode atom probes (LEAP) have been built and tested as commercial prototypes and several key performance parameters have been markedly improved relative to conventional three-dimensional atom probe (3DAP) designs.

Field ionization of gases at a metal surface and the resolution of the field ion microscope

Erwin W. Müller, +1 more
- 01 May 1956 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanism of field emission of positive ions is considered as depending upon the supply of molecules and their ionization probability in a field up to 500 million volts/cm.

Atomic Binding of Transition Metals on Clean Single‐Crystal Tungsten Surfaces

E. W. Plummer, +1 more
- 15 Oct 1968 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the binding energy of the Period 6 transition elements on atomically perfect single-crystal planes of tungsten was measured by utilizing low-temperature pulse field desorption, in a ultrahighvacuum field-ion microscope.

The structure of field-evaporated surfaces☆

D.G. Brandon
- 01 Jan 1964 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, an attempt has been made to calculate the evaporation fields for metals at 0 °K using the model developed by Gomer and Swanson 1 ). Polarisation corrections have been estimated and the results differ appreciably from those obtained previously by Muller 2 ) in that most metals are expected to evaporate as multiply charged ions within a relatively narrow range of field strength.
