atom probe [′ad·əm ‚prōb]
(engineering) An instrument for identifying a single atom or molecule on a metal surface; it consists of a field ion microscope with a probe hole in its screen opening into a mass spectrometer; atoms that are removed from the specimen by pulsed field evaporation fly through the probe hole and are detected in the mass spectrometer.

Other differences include a chapter on scanning probe microscopy; an expanded treatment of electron microscopy, now discussed in individual chapters on transmission techniques and scanning methods; and an expanded chapter on quantitative analysis that accommodates recent advances in three- dimensional reconstruction, including orientation imaging microscopy and atom probe tomography. Paoli, PA 8/13/07; Paris, France 8/13/07--AMETEK has acquired CAMECA SAS, a manufacturer of secondary ion mass and low-energy X-ray emission spectrometers, as well as tomographic atom probes and electron probe microanalysis instrumentation, for 82 million [euro] ($112 million) from the Carlyle Group. |
