摘要: Abstract We present a new differential-thickness coating technique to analyze insulating samples with X-ray PhotoElectron Emission spectroMicroscopy (X-PEEM). X-PEEM is non-destructive, analyzes the chemical composition and crystal structure of minerals can spatially resolve species resolution presently reaching 35 nm. tested differential by analyzing 4.4 billion-year-old zircon (ZrSiO 4 ) containing silicate inclusions. observed quartz (SiO 2 inclusions smaller than 1 μm in size that only be analyzed non-destructively synchrotron spectromicroscopies. With removal charging we greatly extend range X-PEEM.
