Abstract

Standard X-ray fluorescence spectrogmphs are capable of measuring elements in areas as small as ⅛-in. diameter, while an electron mitroprobe specialises in areas less than 10 μ. Frequently, a sample of an intermediate size (0.1 mm to 2 mm) requires analysis, so an attachment was designed for Philips Electronics Company equipment. Reasons for its design, sensitivity of the system, and several metallurgical examples showing its versatility are discussed in the report.
