Atom probe tomography (APT) is often quoted to provide "atomic-scale" analysis of materials in three dimensions. Despite efforts to quantify APT's spatial resolution, misunderstanding remain regarding its true spatial performance. If the…

Atom probe tomography is often introduced as providing "atomic-scale" mapping of the composition of materials and as such is often exploited to analyse atomic neighbourhoods within a material. Yet quantifying the actual spatial performance…

In this review we present an overview of the current atom probe tomography spatial data reconstruction paradigm, and explore some of potential routes to improve the current methodology in order to yield a more accurate representation of…

Atomic probe tomography (APT), based on the work of Erwin Mueller, is able to generate three-dimensional chemical maps in atomic resolution. The required instruments for APT have evolved over the last 20 years from an experimental to an…

We demonstrate that the spatial resolution of images in optical tomography is not limited to the fundamental length scale of one transport mean free path. This result is facilitated by the introduction of novel corrections to the standard…
