Session: APT and FIM Analysis of Catalysts and Nanomaterials
Presenter: Krishna Rajan, Iowa State University

In this presentation we describe the design and examples of applications of the use of an environmental cell integrated into a LEAP atom probe. The use of such a cell helps to open up the field of in-situ gas-solid reactions by permitting one to study surface and near surface reactions which are closer to ambient conditions than is possible in traditional surfaces science studies. The implications for this experimental approach in the context of the study of catalysts and nanomaterials are discussed.
