Abstract The tunneling microscope, a new instrument capable of imaging surfaces in real space with atomic resolution, has been available for about six years. The ultimate impact of this tool on the whole of surface science must still await the critical judgment from future generations with a broad perspective on what will hopefully one day be considered a mature field. Nevertheless it is clear today that the microscope will certainly play a role in the determination of surface crystal structures in cases where traditional diffraction methods have been used in the past as well as in situations where such methods have not been applicable.
