Abstract
It is well-known that 'blunt' FIM needle specimens can be resharpened via an 'in-situ' field emission technique and thereby extend the life of the specimen without removing it from the microscope. We have examined of tip morphology on the resharpening process by using TEM and FIM. Examples of successfully resharpened specimens will be presented.
