Core specializes in high-resolution chemical imaging by three-dimensional atom-probe tomography (APT). APT produces three-dimensional (3D) atom-by-atom elementally and isotopically resolved image with sub-nanometer spatial resolution of sample volume typically 100 x 100 x 300 nm^3, by simultaneous high resolution direct-space imaging and atom-by-atom time of flight mass spectrometry. APT is particularly suited to study nano- or nanostructured materials.
