Abstract
A bakable liquid helium vapor cooled field ion microscope suitable for ultrahigh vacuum studies of vapor deposition and thin film growth is described. The features include simplicity of design and economy of operation over the full temperature range down to liquid helium temperature. Movable evaporators allow in situ studies of thin metal films formed by vapor deposition.Keywords
