Overview

Within the last 30 years, electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) has become a standard analytical technique used in the transmission electron microscope to extract chemical and structural information down to the atomic level. In two previous editions, Electron Energy-Loss Spectroscopy in the Electron Microscope has become the standard reference guide to the instrumentation, physics and procedures involved, and the kind of results obtainable. Within the last few years, the commercial availability of lens-aberration correctors and electron-beam monochromators has further increased the spatial and energy resolution of EELS. This thoroughly updated and revised Third Edition incorporates these new developments, as well as advances in electron-scattering theory, spectral and image processing, and recent applications in fields such as nanotechnology. The appendices now contain a listing of inelastic mean free paths and a description of more than 20 MATLAB programs for calculating EELS data.

Booknews

A comprehensive guide to a technique for the chemical and structural analysis of thin specimens in a transmission electron microscope. About a third of the text has been rewritten from the 1986 first edition to reflect the substantial developments in methods, instruments, applications, and interpretation. Among the new topics are parallel-recording, energy-filtering, and spectrum-imaging systems; the angular distribution of plural scattering; the elemental analysis of thicker specimens; ELNES fingerprinting; and white-line ratios. Also includes the source code for several new computer programs, as well as addresses for Internet sites where they are available. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
