Abstract
Methods and instruments used in this work are described in this chapter. Regarding TEM there are numerous techniques in addition to the basic functionality of imaging. The analytical techniques EDXS and EELS were used in combination with STEM to acquire interdiffusion profiles for evaluation. The two techniques are described in detail in the subsequent sections especially considering quantification of the experimental data. A basic overview of TEM is, for example, given in the books of Williams & Carter [133] and Reimer & Kohl [134]. SEM was used during the preparation process of the samples. The textbook by Reimer [135] explains SEM in detail.
