PS2.7: Advances in spectroscopy in STEM and CTEM
Session co-organisers: Alan Craven, Servet Turan, Peter Schattschneider
Spectroscopy in the STEM and CTEM is a rapidly advancing field, based on new instrumentation, new techniques and new understanding. Monochromation, better energy filters, fast shutters and improved read-out, combined with progress in simulation, give access to information in EELS with unprecedented accuracy. Chiral techniques and cathodoluminescence are also developing rapidly.   Highly efficient detectors are creating renewed interest in EDX. Used either alone or in combination, these techniques give more complete information about materials than ever before.   This session aims to demonstrate such developments and their impact on the field.
