Basic Principles of Analytical Electron Microscopy

  • Chapter
Analytical Electron Microscopy for Materials Science

Abstract

Before going into a detailed explanation of the hardware of transmission electron microscopes and analytical methods, it is necessary to understand some fundamental aspects. These areas include the interactions between incident electrons and materials, the basic principles of analytical electron microscopy, and the processing of analytical data.
