Laboratory of Electron Microscopy and Microanalysis

CAMECA SX100 electron microprobe

CAMECA SX100 electron microprobe

Properties

  • 5 WD spectrometers, 1 ED spectrometer, BSE, SE and CL detectors
  • the instrument is equipped with an optical microscope for observation in transmitted and reflected light (even polarized)
  • measurement is possible B-U, but F-U as standard
  • the examined object can be observed in backscattered electrons (BSE), secondary electrons (SE), cathodoluminescence (CL) and reflected or transmitted light
  • objects are analyzed by non-destructive chemical methods (WDS)
  • elements from F to U can be measured (if necessary also O, N, C and B)
  • detection limits from tens to hundreds of ppm
  • measuring objects up to several µm
  • orientation analysis using energy dispersion spectroscopy EDS
  • point and area analyzes, point profiles
  • composite element maps and line profiles

Utilisation

  • research institutes, engineering and geological subjects, mining and environmental companies
  • development and production of materials based on glass, metal alloys, etc.
  • construction and remediation companies (analyzes of building materials, degradation of building materials, inorganic pigments)
  • archeology
  • measurement and examination of biological material of human or animal origin
