Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) / Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS)

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) / Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS)

Scanning Electron Microscopy allows detailed surface analysis as well as high magnification viewing of very small features. The Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) feature allows the additional advantage of being able to obtain the elemental composition of small objects or surfaces. Also of particular use is when this technique is used in conjunction with Micro-FTIR for the characterization of trace contaminants and unknowns.
