---|---|---|---|---|
Bruker Corp. | 514 | Crystal Orientation Mapping and Imaging at Nanometer Scale Using On-Axis TKD | Monday, Aug 6th, 2018 | Introduced just a few years ago, TKD in SEM, a.k.a. t-EBSD, has already become an established technique due to its much better spatial resolution as compared to standard EBSD and to the ever increasing need of analytical tools for characterizing nanomaterials. The original sample-detector configuration using the standard EBSD detector a.k.a off-axis TKD had certain limitations resulting in a drop in data quality and/or measurement efficiency. The two most important drawbacks of off-axis TKD were the strong gnomonic projection distortions in the patterns and the fact that the patterns were produced by high angle scattering electrons, i.e. very weak signal. We are going to demonstrate the unique capability of on-axis TKD which does not have these limitations. The most important factors influencing the spatial resolution of TKD in SEM will also be discussed as well as its integration with other techniques like Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDS). |

Gatan | 824 | Correlating Physical and Optical Properties Down to the Nanoscale Using Cathodoluminescence | Monday, Aug 6th, 2018 | Characterization of the optical properties of materials with spatial resolution better than the diffraction limit of light is required to further our understanding of nanostructured materials and devices, and light-matter interactions. The technique of cathodoluminescence (CL) performed in the scanning- and transmission- electron microscopes has gained great interest to study optical properties at the nanoscale due to the ability to excite optical processes with a sub-nanometer probe of electrons. Light emission is defined by its distribution in energy (wavelength), momentum (angular), and polarization and in this tutorial, we will review how the latest tools are being used to understand all three distributions, delivering the most complete understanding to date of optical properties at the nanoscale and the most accurate correlation with physical properties. |

Bruker Corp. | 514 | High-Speed Elemental Mapping with Micro-XRF/SEM | Tuesday, Aug 7th, 2018 | Introduced just a few years ago, micro-XRF has become a widely used analytical technique in SEM. One major application is element distribution measurements. However, the X-ray beam cannot be scanned as the electron beam in the SEM. Thus, the change of the measurement position has to be performed by SEM stage movement. In most SEMs, moving the stage from point to point is time consuming which results in long acquisition times. We are going to demonstrate our new piezo sub-stage which will be mounted directly on the existing SEM stage. This new stage enables distribution analysis "on the fly" meaning the stage never stops during acquisition with a maximum speed of up to 20 mm/s. Useful information on element distribution can already be obtained with an acquisition time of 1 ms per pixel. Seamlessly integrated in the ESPRIT software suite, it even allows the use of EDS and micro-XRF mapping simultaneously. |
Bruker Corp. | 514 | Quantitative Element Mapping and Analysis of (Mainly) Electron Transparent Samples Using EDS | Tuesday, Aug 7th, 2018 | With the advent of SDD technology Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDS) for STEM is growing into a wide spread well-established serious analysis technique. Just identifying elements is not good enough, it becomes more and more relevant to know how many atoms there are of which element. How well can this be measured without a few assumptions and how does the composition develop during e.g. in-situ experiments? The tutorial introduces possibilities for quantitative EDS in STEM compared to SEM and in relation to some other STEM analysis techniques. Quantitative EDS using Bruker ESPRIT SW for off-line data analysis is demonstrated. Advantages of version 2 vs version 1.9 are shown and analysis approaches tailored to specific challenges, such as nanoparticles, interfaces and composition changes during in situ experiments, are discussed. |

Bruker Corp. | 514 | Bruker XFlash FlatQUAD EDS Detector - Gaining Analytical Advantages using an Annular Four-Channel Silicon Drift Detector | Wednesday, Aug 8th, 2018 | As Silicon Drift Detectors (SDDs) have become the standard detectors for energy dispersive x-ray detection in the last years, special detector designs and concepts can bring the performance to the next level. During this tutorial, you will learn more about the special multi-element concept of the XFlash® FlatQUAD, an annular detector that can be placed between the pole piece and the sample in a standard SEM using a BSE detector like setup. This setup leads to an extremely large solid angle of more than 1 sr which is typically 100 times larger than standard 10mm detectors in a conventional inclined setup as well as to a high take-off angle. Therefore extremely high count rates can be achieved easily even with low probe currents, and can be processed with four separate electronic channels in parallel, leading to maximum output count rate of more than 2,400,000 cps. These properties make the detector an ideal device for high speed mapping applications or beam sensitive sample at low accelerating voltages and beam currents and samples with an extreme topography. |

Gatan | 824 | Capturing in situ EELS Video Datasets | Wednesday, Aug 8th, 2018 | For many in-situ experiments, dynamic behavior is irreversible, and thus, only one in-situ experiment can be performed on a single TEM sample. This makes it essential to gather as much time-resolved data simultaneously as possible, since the material may be very different during subsequent acquisitions, and the dynamics of interest may no longer be observable. Acquiring chemical information from EELS can often be an important part of interpreting the dynamics from ¬in-situ experiments. In this tutorial, workflows for in-situ EELS acquisition in GMS 3 will be explained and example datasets will be shown. Examples include core-loss, low-loss excitations, EFTEM and STEM-EELS. |
