Performance Advances in LEAP systems

Performance advances in Atom Probe Tomography (APT) in recent years have driven a dramatic expansion in the published literature. This expansion is evidence that easier, faster, and better threedimensional nanoscale compositional information can enable a wide variety of research that was not reasonable to pursue even several years ago. Since the introduction of the commercially available laserpulsed atom probe in 2006, publications reporting APT results have tripled and the variety of applications continues to expand with each year [1].
