Aberration-corrected atom probe tomography for materials engineering

观察原子级结构是解开先进材料科学与工程(MSE)的关键。 目标：我们的目标是(1)开发能够准确观察材料中原子的软件，以及(2)将这一新软件应用于添加剂制造的合金和量子计算材料。 意义：我们希望在国际上首次完成像差校正的原子探测器断层扫描能力。我们打算更好地洞察MSE中一些长期存在的问题，这些问题只有通过准确地观察AS才能得到答案。 好处：通过将结果商业化，我们希望改善产品质量的一致性，并增加制造过程中的产量。

Observing atomic-scale structure (AS) is key to unlocking advanced materials science and engineering (MSE). Aims: We aim to (1) develop software that will enable the accurate observation of atoms in a material, and (2) apply this new software to additive manufactured alloys and quantum computing materials. Significance: We expect to complete aberration-corrected atom probe tomography capability for the first time internationally. We intend to gain better insights into some longstanding questions in MSE that can only be answered by accurately observing AS. Benefits: By making the outcomes commercially available, we aspire to improve consistency in the quality of products, and increased yield, that result from manufacturing processes.
