SEM and EDS analysis in industry
As the complexity of industrial processes increases, so does the need for more rigorous, high-quality analysis to ensure that products meet all standards of quality and reliability. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has become a common tool for modern research and development, as well as for failure analysis and troubleshooting, because it provides detailed (nanometer-scale) information about the surface structure of samples. SEM is often used in conjunction with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), which adds elemental information to the surface imaging data.

An introduction to elemental analysis with ColorSEM Technology
Elemental analysis with traditional EDS (energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy) runs on a dedicated hardware and software system. This requires constant switching between two separate operating platforms, usually navigating through complex workflows to get to the answer. In this application note, discover how the Thermo Scientific™ ColorSEM™ Technology can overcome this, delivering new levels of speed, convenience, and insight during SEM EDS analysis.
