Electron 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 کاملElectron Probe Microanalysis
The section on tranquilizers comprises three chapters: (1) Phenothiazine derivatives by P. B. Bradley, (2) Rauwolfia derivatives by J. J. Lewis and (3) Diphenylmethane derivatives by T. R. Sherrod. The first two are, quite justifiably, restricted to detailed accounts of the pharmacology of chlorpromazine and reserpine respectively, which are treated as model compounds representative of their ch...
متن کاملQuantitative Electron Probe Microanalysis
The recognition and understanding of the role of the microstructure in controlling the macroscopic behavior of a material has been a major theme of science and technology throughout the history of NBS/NIST. In materials science, the late 19th century saw the development of the sample preparation procedures we know today as “metallography” and “materialography,” and the emergence of optical micr...
متن کاملCharacterization of atmospheric particles by electron probe X-ray microanalysis.
Microchemical glass standards were used to validate a quantitation method based on peak-to-background (P/B) ratios from electron probe x-ray microanalysis spectra. This standardless method was applied to the determination of concentrations of individual particles from Malpha or Lalpha lines, as well as from Kalpha lines. The algorithm was tested on particulate glass samples for diameters rangin...
متن کاملThe Present Status of Electron Probe Microanalysis
Few other analytical methods have expanded so rapidly as electron probe microanalysis during the past 10 years. The number of elements that can be determined or detected extends from beryllium to uranium and concentrations in the range 0.1—100 per cent can be dealt with. This has been made possible by the introduction of new analysing crystals and counting systems. The application of computer p...
