Background

The electronic probe is used as a micro-area in-situ analysis means, can quickly and accurately analyze the element concentration of a solid sample, is widely applied to the fields of geology, material science and the like, and is mainly applied to the analysis and test of major elements. Compared with other micro-area in-situ analysis and test means, the electronic probe has the characteristics of small spatial resolution, no damage and accurate test, so that the electronic probe is increasingly paid more attention to the analysis of micro-area in-situ trace elements.

The basic principle of the electron probe is that an electron beam bombards a sample to generate X rays, and the percentage concentration of elements in the sample is obtained through matrix correction according to the comparison between the intensity of the characteristic X rays of the elements of the tested sample and the intensity of the characteristic X rays of the elements of a standard sample, and the formula is as follows:

When the electron probe is used for quantitative analysis, a spectroscopic crystal on a spectrometer is used for testing the characteristic X-ray intensity of elements.

To improve the accuracy of the test, I must be increased_unkThe value is obtained.
