Multimodal chemical imaging simultaneously offers high resolution chemical and physical information with nanoscale, and in select cases atomic, resolution. By coupling modalities that collect physical and chemical information, we can address a new set of scientific problems in biological systems, battery and fuel cell research, catalysis, pharmaceuticals, photovoltaics, medicine and many others. The combined multimodal platforms enable local correlation of material properties with chemical makeup, making fundamental questions in how chemistry and structure drive functionality approachable. The goal of multimodal imaging is to transcend the existing analytical capabilities for nanometer scale spatially resolved material characterization at interfaces through a unique merger of advanced microscopy, mass spectrometry and optical spectroscopy.Combining helium ion microscopy (HIM) and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) onto one platform has been demonstrated as a method for high resolution spot sampling and imaging of substrates. To advance this approach and to expand its capabilities I will present our results of multimodal chemical imaging using this technique on test substrates and show application of this approach for the multimodal analysis of perovskite (HOIPs) materials. I will discuss the performance metrics of the multimodal imaging system on conductive and non-conductive materials and discuss our results on understanding the chemical nature of ferroelastics twin domains in methylammonium lead triiodide (MAPbI3) perovskite using HIM-SIMS.
