EDX

1. Project introduction:

EDX is the determination of the elements contained in the sample by analyzing the X-ray wavelength and intensity of the elements emitted by the sample, and the relative content of the elements according to the intensity. Talos Dual-X SDD: 2 EDX probes for fast imaging and high resolution.

The Dual-X’s EDX collection is more efficient
