Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A novel method to use flat sample in atom probe tomography where the sample is requested to be formed as a needle structure was examined. It was found that high magnification of the electrostatic projection comparable to the atom probe can be obtained by placing a counter electrode above the flat sample with a very short spacing. The electrodes for this experiment was designed and fabricated, and preliminary experiments were performed.
