Abstract

In addition to the generation of backscattered and secondary electrons, the interaction of an electron beam with the specimen material releases x-rays which are used to undertake elemental analysis using energy−/wavelength-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. Characteristics of x-rays are described in this chapter.
