 Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy

Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX or EDS) is an analytical technique used to determine the elemental composition of materials. It is frequently employed in conjunction with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) or transmission electron microscopy (TEM). ### Key Features of EDX: 1. **Principle of Operation**: EDX works by bombarding a sample with high-energy X-rays or electrons.
