Electron Microprobe Analysis Lecture Notes
The electron microprobe provides a complete micrometer-scale quantitative chemical analysis of inorganic solids. The method is nondestructive and utilizes characteristic Xrays excited by an electron beam incident on a flat surface of the sample. This course provides an introduction to the theory of X-ray microanalysis through wavelength and energy dispersive spectrometry (WDS and EDS), ZAF matr...
متن کاملComparison of Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (sims) with Electron Microprobe Analysis (epma) and Other Thin Film Analytical Methods
Different modes of SIMS for thin film analysis and the principle of SIMS will be discussed; this will be followed by a discussion of some features related to instrumentation: types of ion sources and their characteristics; ion microprobe versus ion microscope; special modes of SIMS: sputter neutral mass spectrometry (SNMS) and fast atom bombardment. (FAB). The discussion of analytical features ...
متن کاملElectron microprobe analysis of lunar samples.
Plagioclase feldspar, clinopyroxene, and ilmenite in a polished thin section of a type A crystalline rock were analyzed. The clinopyroxene grains are compositionally variable, and both high Ca and low Ca phases are present. The plagioclase is compositionally homogeneous. The ilmenite is chemically homogeneous except for occasional, small areas of high local chromium concentration. Accessory min...
متن کاملElectron Probe Microanalysis (EPMA)
An electron microprobe is an electron microscope designed for the non-destructive x-ray microanalysis and imaging of solid materials. It is essentially a hybrid instrument combining the capabilities of both the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an x-ray fluorescence spectrometer (XRF), with the added features of fine-spot focusing (~ 1 micrometer), optical microscope imaging, and precision...
متن کاملMinimizing Errors in Electron Microprobe Analysis.
Errors in quantitative electron microprobe analysis arise from many sources including those associated with sampling, specimen preparation, instrument operation, data collection, and analysis. The relative magnitudes of some of these factors are assessed for a sample of NiAl used to demonstrate important concerns in the analysis of even a relatively simple system measured under standard operati...
