Electron Energy-Loss Spectroscopy in the Electron Microscope

Autor R.F. Egerton
en Limba Engleză Paperback – oct 2014
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.

Recenzii

From the reviews of the third edition:
“R.F. Egerton’s Electron Energy-loss Spectroscopy in the Electron Microscope is the standard text on the subject … . The book is now very up-to-date; R.F. Egerton has clearly continued adding to the text and references up to the last minute … . Springer have printed the book beautifully, with colour in place when needed and the references now give full details … . EEL spectroscopists … cannot do without this new edition.” (Ultramicroscopy, Vol. 116, 2012)
