Based on our preceding discussions of atomic-resolution characterization techniques in Chapter 4, no technique has yet achieved ASAT. Combining information from FIM or (S)TEM along with APT has demonstrated some very promising results, and each combination seems to be a likely path toward ASAT. In this chapter, we propose how ASAT might be achieved using correlative and/or combined techniques such as (S)TEM + APT. Such a combination would allow several routes for determination of the ion transfer function, or how imaging occurs during an APT experiment. If we can determine the transfer function with high-enough fidelity, we make the argument that it should be possible to achieve ASAT using a combination of (S)TEM and APT with inputs from simulations.
Superconductivity is among the most exciting of quantum phenomena in condensed matter physics, and has important applications across science and technology, from fusion reactors to particle accelerators. This self-contained text provides a comprehensive account of the physical foundations of superconductivity and related recent developments in the field. Beginning with a detailed description of the BSC theory of superconductivity, the book then describes the subsequent successes of this landmark theory and proceeds to more advanced topics such as Josephson effects and vortices. The strong coupling theory of superconductivity is introduced in later chapters, providing a springboard to important current research on hydride superconductors, which have displayed very high critical temperatures. Recent manifestations of superfluidity in ultracold atoms physics are also described. This book will give readers a solid grounding in the theory and applications of superconductivity, and an appreciation of its broader importance in the field of modern condensed matter physics.
A comprehensive guide on Atomic-Scale Analytical Tomography (ASAT) that discusses basic concepts and implications of the technique in areas such as material sciences, microscopy, engineering sciences and several interdisciplinary avenues. The title interrogates how to successfully achieve ASAT at the intersection of transmission electron microscopy and atom probe microscopy. This novel concept is capable of identifying individual atoms in large volumes as well as in 3D, with high spatial resolution. Written by leading experts from academia and industry, this book serves as a guide with real-world applications on cutting-edge research problems. An essential reading for researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in nanoscale characterisation, this book introduces the reader to a new direction for atomic-scale microscopy.
