WHAT IS EELS ? Analyticaltechnique Quantitativeanalysis Analysisof the inelastic scattering suffered by the transmitted electron beam with measurement of the electron energy distribution Capableof giving structural and chemical information Electronspectrometer
Figure 1 High-resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) is a high-sensitivity, non-destructive technique for the study of surface and adsorbate vibrations and low-energy electronic excitations.
THE PROCESS OF HISTORICAL DEVELOPMNET James Hillier RF Baker in the mid 1940s Research1990s due to advance in microscope instrumentations and vacuum technology
