Introduction: special issue on cathodoluminescence.

Cathodoluminescence ~CL! microanalysis provides high-sensitivity spectra and high-resolution images associated with impurity and structural defects at the nanoscale and from luminescent materials including minerals, semiconductor, and dielectric/insulating materials. Cathodoluminescence is the non-incandescent emission of light ~photons! emitted from materials excited by an electron beam. CL ph...
