SEM/EDX

The SEM is able to give information about morphology in the samples.

In this present study, we basically showed dependence of the number of reduced cobalt metal surface atoms on dispersion of cobalt oxides along with the presence of rutile phase in titania. Both XRD and SEM/EDX results (not shown) revealed good distribution of cobalt oxides over the titania support. However, it can not differentiate all samples containing various ratios of rutile/anatase phase. Thus, in order to determine the dispersion of cobalt oxide species on titania, a more powerful technique such as TEM was applied with all samples. The TEM micrographs for all samples are shown in Figure 1. The dark spots represented cobalt oxides species present after calcination of samples dispersing on titania consisting various... 

It was reported recently [216] that optical-quality PbTe thin films can be directly electrodeposited onto n-type Si(lOO) substrates, without an intermediate buffer layer, from an acidic (pH 1) lead acetate, tellurite, stirred solution at 20 °C. SEM, EDX, and XRD analyses showed that in optimal deposition conditions the films were uniform, compact, and stoichiometric, made of fine, 50-100 nm in size, crystallites of a polycrystalline cubic structure, with a composition of 51.2 at.% Pb and 48.8 at.% Te. According to optical measurements, the band gap of the films was 0.31 eV and of a direct transition. Cyclic voltammetry indicated that the electrodeposition occurred via an induced co-deposition mechanism. 

SEM and" SEM-EDX analyses have been used in order to observe how and where the new material forms on the alumina support. XRD and MASNMR studies have been performed for its identification. Porous characteristics of the composite material have been explored using N2 adsorption-desorption experiments (Micromeritics ASAP 2000M)... 

Crosswise SEM-EDX analyses show that the global Si/Al ratio (zeolite + support) varies in a very different way (Figure 5) according to the presence or absence of the y-Al203 toplayer in the support. 

Figure 5. Crosswise SEM-EDX analysis in the composite membranes (L, radial distance from the inner surface of the tube) Curve 1 ( ) corresponds to support without the y-AI2O3 toplayer, curve 2 ( ) with the y-Al203 toplayer.

Figure 57.16. The comparison of A1 leachability for the casted single-phase alloy powders, the casted multiphase alloy block and CA53. The CA53 was activated at it with 10 wt.% NaOH and its A1 content was determined by x-ray. The other casted alloys were activated at it with 20 wt.% NaOH and their A1 contents were ascertained by SEM EDX.

In an article published in Analytical Chemistry in 2004, Keune and Boon [2004a] present the application of ToF-SIMS analysis to a paint cross-section. The sample used was from the panel painting The Descent from the Cross (Museo del Prado, Madrid) by the early Flemish painter Rogier van der Weyden (1399/1400 1464). Scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX) and infrared microscopy were also used to complete and confirm the results.

Scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX)... 

The activity of chemically active AF paints usually relies on the reactivity of organometallic compounds (e.g. TBT-, Zn-, Si, Cu- acrylates and Zn-resinates) and inorganic pigments (i.e. CU2O). In spite of this, scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray detectors (SEM-EDX) has not been used extensively to characterise such reactions. Bishop and Silva...
