Atom Probe Tomography (APT) is a high-resolution analytical technique used primarily for materials science and nanotechnology. Its ability to provide 3D imaging and atomic-scale compositional information makes it indispensable in a wide range of applications, when combined with different electron microscopy techniques.

APT Main Features:

  • Atomic Resolution: Resolves individual atoms and their positions.
  • 3D Imaging: Creates 3D models of nanoscale structures.
  • High Sensitivity: Detects elements down to partsper-million (ppm) concentrations; High detection efficiency for low-atomic mass elements.
  • Versatility: Applicable for metals, semiconductors, ceramics, and even biomaterials.
