Electron probe microanalysis
X-ray electron microanalysis is a non-destructive analytical method with high spatial resolution for measurement of elemental concentrations in geological samples.
ICP-MS
...means inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. We use a ThermoFinnigan Element2 for the quantitative analysis of trace and ultratrace elements and isotope ratios in geological and non-geological samples. Most elements of the periodic system can be analyzed.
X-ray µ-CT
...means X-ray 3D microtomography. We use a ProCon CT-ALPHA X-rays to inspect the three dimensional distribution of matter inside the object of investigation.
LA-ICP-MS
...means laser-ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. We use a New Wave UP193 for the quantitative analysis of various types of solid samples.
REM & EDX
...means Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy.
