Correlative TEM/APT: achieve true 3D quantification of grain boundary segregation

Atom Probe Tomography (APT) is a unique microanalytical technique offering extensive capabilities for 3D imaging and chemical composition measurement at the atomic scale. Allowing to determine the identity and position of nearly every atom in a material, APT enables precedented understanding of nanostructures in metals & alloys.

Combining Transmission Electron Microscopy with Atom Probe Tomography, researchers are able to characterize grain regions at the nanoscale and to achieve true 3D quantification of grain boundary segregation.
