Preferred Label : electron probe microanalysis;
MeSH definition : Identification and measurement of ELEMENTS and their location based on the fact that
X-RAYS emitted by an element excited by an electron beam have a wavelength characteristic
of that element and an intensity related to its concentration. It is performed with
an electron microscope fitted with an x-ray spectrometer, in scanning or transmission
mode.;
