There are few characterization techniques to visualize individual atoms that make up materials. Atom Probe Tomography is the distinctive technique, which results in ‘atom maps’: displaying a particular volume of material in 3-dimensions, atom-by-atom. By chemically identifying and localizing atom positions in 3-dimensions, myriad nanostructures, dopants, and clustering phenomena can readily be quantified.
