Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy (EELS) is a common spectroscopy technique available on many electron microscopes and complementary to EDX. It is an analystical tool to charcaterise both the spectral and spatial properties of a sample. It involves measuring the kinetic energy of electrons aftr they inelastically scatter with the sample.
ePSIC provides scientists with state-of-the-art experimental equipment and expertise in the filed of physical sciences electron microscopy and characterisation. Currently ePSIC offers beam time on two fully operational microscopes: (E01) A probe-corrected JEM ARM200F with EELS and EDX capabilities in collaboration with Johnson Matthey, and (E02) a probe and image corrected JEM ARM300F in collaboration with University of Oxford.
