Thin film X-ray microanalysis with the analytical electron microscope

Abstract

X-ray microanalysis, when performed in an analytical electron microscope (AEM) equipped with an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), is a powerful technique for determining chemical composition at high spatial resolution.The basic aspects of the generation and detection of X-rays will be reviewed and the problem of quantification of thin films (composition and thickness) will be discussed.
