A sample rotation stage and image stitching algorithm were developed to obtain ToF-SIMS images of the entire surface of a bullet casing. This enabled detection of fingermarks on casings that showed no evidence of marks using conventional techniques.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
