Extract

Energy-dispersive X-ray techniques can be employed in two different ways for the accurate determination of element concentrations in specimens: (1) spectrometry of fluoresced characteristic X-rays as widely applied in the various modes of the traditional XRF analysis technique, and (2) spectrometry of the energy-differential transmittance of an X-ray continuum at the element-specific absorption-edge energies.
