EDX analysis
EDX analysis, or Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, is a technique used to identify the elemental makeup of a material. When a sample is bombarded with electrons, it emits X-rays at specific energies unique to each element. By detecting these X-rays, scientists can determine which elements are present and in what amounts. This method is commonly used in materials science, geology, and electronics to analyze the composition of samples rapidly and accurately, providing valuable insights into the material’s properties and quality.
