# CorrelationHistogram | ||
For in-depth analysis of correlation histograms in atom probe tomography. | ||
|
||
A unique advantage of straight flight path atom probes is the rich information in correlation histograms of the collected data. | ||
The APT datasets contain information regarding the number of ion hits detected in each pulsing window, referred to as multiplicity. | ||
For correlation histograms, we focus on events with a multiplicity greater than 1. We preprocess the data to arrange multiple hits with a value greater than two, creating all possible sorted pairs of mass-to-charge values. | ||
So, a multiplicity value of 3, corresponding to a detection of triplet $(m_1, m_2, m_3)$ in a pulsing window is processed to 3 sorted pairs { $(m_1, m_2)$, $(m_2, m_3)$, $(m_1, m_3)$ } such that the first mass-to-charge value is always smaller than its partner. The resulting mass-to-charge pairs are plotted on a 2D histogram containing two mass-to-charge axes. As discussed by Saxey, molecular dissociation often leaves a track on the correlation histogram, allowing us to investigate the type of reactions occurring in the analysis of each oxide. | ||
