| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Field emission microscopy (FEM) and field ion microscopy (FIM) observations of pentacene molecules adsorbed on a carbon nanotube (CNT) electron emitter were carried out. FEM images of pentacene molecules were thick fringes. In FIM, cocoon-shaped (allay-shaped) spots changed their positions, and paired cocoon-shaped spots in parallel each other were observed.
A low-energy projection electron microscope with a CNT emitter as a point electron source was experimentally fabricated, and microscope images of magnification of approximately 10,000 at acceleration voltages 200-300V. An evaluation of coherence of electrons emitted from CNT field emitters was tried by using an electron biprism manufactured for the present CNT-FEM apparatus.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
カーボンナノチューブ（CNT）やグラフェンなどのナノカーボンからの電界電子放出では，炭素原子の電子軌道や吸着分子の原子分解能での観察，真空度への要求が厳しくない（通常の高真空環境でも動作可能）など，従来のタングステンなどの金属電子源での常識を覆す，特異で興味深い現象が明らかにされている。本研究では，このCNT電子源の特性を生かして，その表面に吸着した有機分子の挙動とその分子像の観察，CNTを電子源とする新しいタイプの低速投射型電子顕微鏡の試作を行い，新たな研究分野の開拓につながる知見を得た。
