ABOUT THE AUTHORS Jacob Garcia is a National Research Council (NRC) Postdoctoral Fellow working in the Material Measurement Laboratory at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Boulder, Colo. After receiving his B.S. in biochemistry from Regis University, he went on to receive his Ph.D. in chemistry from Arizona State University in 2021 where he worked on the time-resolved excited state dynamics of transition metal oxide clusters. Garcia was then awarded an NRC Fellowship, where he transitioned to the Extreme APT project at NIST in early 2022. At NIST, Garcia works to characterize the extreme ultraviolet atom probe system and apply the instrumentation for industrially relevant material analysis. Ann Chiaramonti is currently the leader of the Extreme Ultraviolet Atom Probe Project in the Material Measurement Laboratory at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. She specializes in materials characterization using electron- and ion-based imaging and scattering techniques, primarily transmission electron microscopy and atom probe tomography. Chiaramonti earned degrees in materials science and engineering from the University of Michigan (B.S.E.) and Northwestern University (Ph.D.). She completed a three-year postdoctoral fellowship in the Materials Science Division at Argonne National Laboratory before joining the Applied Chemicals and Materials Division of the National Institute of Standards and Technology in 2009.
