A Shield for Reducing the Thermal Signal from Heating Holders DuringIn SituEnergy-Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy Analysis
Source abstract
Abstract
This article describes a simple shield that can be placed on typical commercial heating holders to reduce the thermal signal during heating to reasonable levels forin situenergy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis. The improved temperature capability provided by the shield is demonstrated by initial compositional analysis results obtained across a solid–liquid interface on Al-Si-Cu-Mg alloy powder particles. Considerations in the design of and improvement for the shield are discussed.
