EDS

Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS)

EDS Analysis provides elemental and chemical analysis of a sample inside the SEM, TEM or FIB. Oxford Instruments provides AZtec, a new and revolutionary materials characterisation system that gathers accurate data at the micro- and nanoscales.

Currently using EDS and want to get the most out of your system? We offer multiple training courses all throughout the year.
