Abstract

Scanning transmission ion microscopy (STIM) is a technique whereby the imaging resolution of a scanning proton microprobe (SPMP) can be improved by one or two orders of magnitude. This has major applications in medicine and biology where it may be needed for identification, resolution of fine structure or imaging a specimen of intrinsically low contrast. Bright field energy loss contrast is the most efficient mode of STIM operation and provides a means of examining sensitive specimens with negligible damage.
