Electron Probe Microanalysis
Microscopy, Electron, X-Ray Microanalysis | Spectrometry, X-Ray Emission, Electron Microscopic | Spectrometry, X-Ray Emission, Electron Probe | X-Ray Emission Spectrometry, Electron Microscopic | X-Ray Microanalysis, Electron Probe
Identification and measurement of concentration of elements based on the fact that primary-emission x-rays emitted by an element excited by an electron beam have a wavelength characteristic of that element and an intensity related to its concentration. It may be performed by an electron probe microanalyzer, an electron microscope microanalyzer, or by an electron microscope, or scanning electron microscope, fitted with an x-ray spectrometer. |
