Extract

This plenary paper is intended to be an introduction to the capabilities and limitations of analytical electron microscopy (AEM). The description to be given assumes no prior knowledge of AEM or any other electron microscopy, scanning or transmission. However, a basic understanding of x-ray generation and detection will be assumed.
