Definition
English
:
A method of simultaneously imaging and measuring
elements
at the submicron level.
Nuclear microscopy
uses a focused high-energy ion beam of
PROTONS
and
ALPHA PARTICLES
(a nuclear microprobe) to interact with the sample. The resulting emitted radiations are analyzed by a group of
techniques
simultaneously: PARTICLE INDUCED X RAY EMISSION
SPECTROMETRY
for minor and trace element identification; Rutherford Backscattering
Spectroscopy
to assess sample thickness and bulk
elements
such as
carbon
,
hydrogen
,
oxygen
, and
nitrogen
; and Scanning Transmission Ion
Microscopy
to assess sample structure and density.
