Field ion microscopic observation was carried out on iron films vapor-deposited onto a tungsten tip from the direction normal to the tip axis. Two kinds of experiments were performed : (i) iron was deposited onto a tip kept at cryogenic temperatures and then heated up to the temperatures 450-750K and (ii) iron was deposited onto a tip at the same temperatures as in (i). The area of the deposited iron images was less than a half of the tip cap in the case (i) and more than a half in the case (ii), probably owing to the momentum carried by the deposited iron atoms
