Abstract
The modern energy-dispersive x-ray spectrometer (EDS) coupled with a computer-based multichannel analyzer (MCA) provides a powerful analytical facility in the SEM lab. The purpose of this laboratory is to introduce the student to the basic concepts of energy-dispersive x-ray spectrometry and to examine some of the spectral artifacts inherent in the technique. More details and references can be found in SEMXM, Chapter 5.
