Example of EPMA analysis using the guide network map method.

Comprehensive analysis is possible! Here are examples of analysis using the EPMA guide network map method.

One of the features of EPMA is the guide network map method. In SEM-EDX, the measurement range is narrow, and for curved samples, surface analysis may not be accurately measured. However, by using the guide network map method of EPMA, extensive analysis becomes possible. This method automatically measures adjacent continuous areas and displays them collectively, making it useful for measuring surfaces with uneven height differences or for measuring large surfaces. 【Features of the Guide Network Map Method】 - A method for automatically measuring adjacent continuous areas and displaying them collectively. - Used for measuring surfaces with uneven height differences or for measuring large surfaces. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

basic information

【Analysis Example】 <Elemental Analysis of Tablet Surface> ■ By arbitrarily dividing the measurement range, such as 2×2 or 3×3, extensive measurements become possible. ■ Due to the height differences, measurements with SEM-EDX become localized, making it difficult to grasp the elemental distribution on the tablet surface. <Surface Analysis (Surface Analysis of Si in a 3×3mm Range)> ■ In standard measurements, the focus does not align with the convex part in the center of the sample, resulting in an incorrect distribution. ■ By using the guide network map method, we were able to obtain the correct distribution without being affected by height differences. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
