Compositional nonuniformities in pulsed laser atom probe tomography analysis of compound semiconductors

Abstract:

The unidirectional laser illumination of atom probe tomography specimens can result in changes of the apex morphology from nearly hemispherical to asymmetrical with different local radii of curvature, implying an anisotropic field distribution across the sample surface. In the analysis of III-V semiconductors, this affects the process of field dissociation of group-V cluster ions and introduces variations in the apparent composition across the field of view. We have studied this phenomenon in...
