Image Detail

Several aspects of magnetic and electric effects in electron microscope images are of interest and will be discussed here. Clearly electrons are deflected by magnetic and electric fields and can give rise to image detail. We will review situations in ferromagnetic films in which magnetic image effects are the predominant ones, others in which the magnetic effects give rise to rather subtle changes in diffraction contrast, cases of contrast at specimen edges due to leakage fields in both ferromagnets and superconductors and some effects due to electric fields in insulators.

The Matrix

The chemical inhomogenities in modern materials such as fibers, phases and inclusions, often have diameters in the region of one micrometer. Using electron microbeam analysis for the determination of the element concentrations one has to know the smallest possible diameter of such regions for a given accuracy of the quantitative analysis.In th is paper the correction procedure for the quantitative electron microbeam analysis is extended to a spacial problem to determine the smallest possible measurements of a cylindrical particle P of high D (depth resolution) and diameter L (lateral resolution) embeded in a matrix M and which has to be analysed quantitative with the accuracy q. The mathematical accounts lead to the following form of the characteristic x-ray intens ity of the element i of a particle P embeded in the matrix M in relation to the intensity of a standard S

One of the most cited papers in the geological sciences has been that of Albee and Bence on the use of empirical " α -factors" to correct quantitative electron microprobe data. During the past 25 years this method has remained the most commonly used correction for geological samples, despite the facts that few investigators have actually determined empirical α-factors, but instead employ tables of calculated α-factors using one of the conventional "ZAF" correction programs; a number of investigators have shown that the assumption that an α-factor is constant in binary systems where there are large matrix corrections is incorrect (e.g, 2-3); and the procedure’s desirability in terms of program size and computational speed is much less important today because of developments in computing capabilities. The question thus exists whether it is time to honorably retire the Bence-Albee procedure and turn to more modern, robust correction methods. This paper proposes that, although it is perhaps time to retire the original Bence-Albee procedure, it should be replaced by a similar method based on compositiondependent polynomial α-factor expressions.

ABSTRACT. We describe the construction and testing of a simple and efficient low-cost resistivimeter designed for use in practical classes in Applied Geophysics. The equipment was successfully tested in a vertical electrical sounding (VES) performed on sandy terrain within the campus of the Universidade Federal de Sergipe, Brazil. The VES results were in good agreement with the profiles obtained from two boreholes located approximately 500 m from the test area, clearly demonstrating the efficiency of the equipment and the adopted methodology.Keywords: vertical electrical sounding, electrical resistivity, resistivity profile. RESUMO. Neste artigo, descrevemos a construção e o teste de um resistivímetro de baixo custo, simples e eficiente, concebido para ser utilizado em aulas práticas de Geofísica Aplicada. O equipamento foi testado com a realização de uma sondagem elétrica vertical (SEV) em um terreno arenoso localizado no campus da Universidade Federal de Sergipe, Brasil. Os resultados obtidos nesta SEV apresentaram boa concordância com os perfis observados em dois poços de sondagem localizados a 500 m da área de teste, fato que comprovou a eficiência do equipamento e da metodologia adotada.Palavras-chave: sondagem elétrica vertical, resistividade elétrica, perfil de resistividade.
