Abstract
The aim of this laboratory session is to demonstrate the use of a magnetic prism electron spectrometer to perform electron energy loss spectrometry (EELS). The main characteristics of the energy loss spectrum will be discussed as well as the effect of instrumental and specimen parameters on the spectrum. Quantitative elemental analysis will be demonstrated and if time permits an example of EELS imaging will be shown. More details can be found in PAEM, Chapters 7 and 8.
