Abstract
A field-ion microscope designed to operate using liquid neon (27.2°K) as specimen coolant is described. Examples of the improvements in resolution and contrast over conventional liquid nitrogen cooled microscopes are presented, and values are given for the extension of the `working range' of tungsten, molybdenum, iridium and nickel (10-30% increase).Keywords
